Packaging: Windows MSI setup wizard (folder choice, progress, version, launch on finish) (#1864)

Browse Source 
Double-clicking the MSI now opens WixUI_InstallDir without the licence page:
Welcome, install folder (remembered for upgrades in
HKLM\Software\PhotoCraft\InstallDir), Ready, progress, and a Finish page with
a ticked "Launch PhotoCraft" box (WixShellExec, unelevated). The pages name
the full version, pre-release tag included (photocraft.en-us.wxl).
package.ps1 draws the banner and side bitmaps from the app icon, so no WiX
stock art ships. msiexec /qn still installs silently. The release and ARM64
workflows install the WiX UI and Util extensions; packaging-lint checks the
.wxl. Ported from VectorCraft (storytold/vectorcraft@aa548d2).
