João Reis bce1aea425 win: fix custom actions for WiX older than 3.9
This is a port of joyent/node@e192f61514 .

Original commit message:

  Older WiX versions included a header with extern "C" declaration,
  hence the custom action source must be C++.

Julien Gilli 0acc9b2795 win: fix custom actions on Visual Studio != 2013
This is a port of joyent/node@16bcd68dc5 .

Original commit message:

  The original change that added support for running custom actions
  during the install process
  (joyent/node@e7c84f82c7) assumed that
  Visual Studio 2013 is used to generate the installer file.

  However, that is not always the case, and older versions of Visual
  Studio should allow users to generate Windows installer files. This
  change makes the custom actions visual studio project use the visual
  studio version that is found by vcbuild.bat.

Mathias Küsel 668bde8ac0 win,msi: broadcast WM_SETTINGCHANGE after install
In theory the msi should broadcast a 'WM_SETTINGCHANGE' message to all
windows after modifying the PATH environment variable. This ensures that
the new PATH is visible to other processes without restarting windows
(although it's still necessary to close and reopen active console
windows).

Unfortunately, the broadcast doesn't always happen, for unknown reasons.
That's why this patch adds a custom action that unconditionally
broadcasts a WM_SETTINGCHANGE message.
