  1. windows: split Windows installer in to user/system

    Split the Windows installer into two versions: a single-user installer,
    and a system-wide installer.
    
    The old installer installed in Program Files (x86) and set the system
    Git configuration, which is now what the system-flavoured installer
    does.
    
    The new single-user installer places files in %LOCALAPPDATA% and updates
    the ~/.gitconfig (global) user Git configuration instead.
    
    The benefit of the single-user installer is that it does not require an
    administrator to install it, and doesn't affect other users of the
    system.
