@mitsuhiko mentioned a need for it.

The module has a lot of rustup-specific stuff in it so it'll take some refactoring.

The MSI installer will allow us to remove much, if not all, of the Windows specific stuff in self_update, because self update and self uninstall will just delegate to msiexec. I don't know how that would influence the maintenance an external crate, whose Windows functionality is then not actually used by rustup.
