Research direction
Start by locating the repository's existing handling of Win32 types and its test coverage for hashing. Use the issue's GUID example to determine the intended specialization scope and verify the result against the project's tests. Done means the requested Win32 types can be used with standard maps without requiring caller-defined hash functions.
