I'm not very familiar with Nullsoft / NSIS so I'm not sure if there's a more elegant way to do this, or have it automatically pull the version number from somewhere more central. But this should make it create a "DisplayVersion" string in the registry alongside the others, so Windows will actually show the version number in the Add/Remove Programs list.
This makes the program compatible with package managers/updates like WinGet, the new official Windows Package Manager.
