[mapguide-internals] Installer: Yeah baby!

My built installer currently doesn't work; rolls back during custom actions.
 
Win7 still has UAC, it's just not as intrusive.  I wonder if adding InstallPrivileges="elevated" to the Package entity would help with the installation on Vista/w2k8/Win7.  I ran into problem of having to run msi from elevated command line too on w2k8.

Hi Martin,

If you can't build one from trunk, maybe Jason could supply you a copy of
the installer.
