[mapguide-internals] Installer Automated build

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

Awesome.

I have produced this small build script, based on the instructions on 
your blog:
cd MgDev
cmd /C build.bat -a=build -w=all
cmd /C build.bat -a=install -w=all
cd ..\Tools\Maestro
cmd /C build.bat -a=buildinstall
cd ..\..\Installer
cmd /C build.bat -a=prepare
cmd /C build.bat -a=build
cd ..

And I can now build the MSI from scratch!

Ps:
The -a=regen option seems to have a slight problem when looking for the
folder "%INSTALLER_DEV%\Support\Web\mapviewer", as it is not in SVN,
and not prepared in the steps.
