Add MSI packaging script using wix

[jakobhellermann]

implements #12288

Add a simple wix package for building an MSI that

• installs Zed to Program Files
• Open with Zed menu in the file explorer

Open questions

1. the installer currently uncontionally installs the "Open with handler", should this be configurable? there's a wixui feature tree we could use https://wixtoolset.org/docs/tools/wixext/wixui/
2. do you wanna sign the installer? no idea how that works but I heard you might get a certificate from signpath.io for free for larger open source projects Documentation on signing Windows and MacOS apps sigstore/fulcio#250 (comment) https://signpath.org/

I guess this is something that should leave to zed staff. And personally I prefer Inno Setup, since VSCode uses it.

Yep at the end of the day it's up to zed staff. I personally like wix because it outputs a MSI which is the native installer format. As far as I can tell, inno setup would produce a ZedInstaller.exe instead.

Thank you for this contribution, but I don't think we want to go this far streamlining windows support until we have staff able to support our windows build.
