* #305: harden Windows MSI deployment and progress UI
Co-authored-by: Codex <noreply@openai.com>
* Keep the MSI manufacturer as Learning Machines LLC
The company name matches the Linux packages; changing it is the owner's call.

* #143: Windows MSI desktop shortcut checkbox and install-complete dialog
Add native installer dialogs (installer-ui.wxs): a welcome screen with a
"Create a desktop shortcut" checkbox (ticked by default), repair/remove,
progress, and "Setup completed successfully" / failed / cancelled screens
with Finish. Unattended /qn and /qb installs never wait on a dialog and can
skip the desktop shortcut with INSTALLDESKTOPSHORTCUT=0.
Start Menu and desktop shortcuts are now plain links to pdfcraft.exe in
their own components (HKLM key paths, removed on uninstall) instead of
advertised MSI shortcuts.
test-msi.ps1 checks the compiled MSI's shortcut, checkbox and dialog tables
during packaging; the ARM64 install smoke test checks both shortcut
targets, their removal on uninstall, and the INSTALLDESKTOPSHORTCUT=0
opt-out.

* #143: run test-msi out of process before signing; add files-in-use dialog
test-msi.ps1 held the MSI open through a Windows Installer COM handle in
package.ps1's own process, so signtool could fail on signed release builds.
Run it in a child process and release the COM objects.
The hand-authored UI had no MsiRMFilesInUse dialog, so an upgrade or repair
while PdfCraft is running could not offer to close it. Add one (OK closes the
programs with MSIRMSHUTDOWN=2, Cancel stops setup) and check for it in
test-msi.ps1.
