misc/dist/windows: ongoing dev Added the (properly formatted) license file back, the installer adds go\bin to the system PATH now, the output package names are in line with the linux and darwin versions, dist.bat extracts GOARCH in a sane way, readme cleanup. Tested on Windows 7 only. It would be helpful if someone else could give it a try. See the readme for details. R=golang-dev, bradfitz CC=golang-dev https://golang.org/cl/5673099

Dependencies
============
- Windows Installer XML (WiX) toolset: http://wix.sourceforge.net/
misc/dist/windows: ongoing dev Embedded Go images in the installer dialog and banner boxes, Go tree cloning uses version info from the Go tool (readme updated), the installer allows up/down-grading and reparing of the version that's installed, added two registry values.
