Add Powershell script to update registry information after war update

[slide]

Adds a script to the Windows installer that can be used to update the registry information from the new war file after it is upgraded using the Jenkins UI. The script is signed using signtool which allows creating a function for the signing and calling it for the ps1 and the msi file(s) that are generated. Since the signing information is added to the ps1, it is first copied into tmp to avoid changing a version controlled file.

Supersedes #492

Testing done

I ran the signing enabled flow with a self signed certificate and was able to sign both the ps1 and msi.

Submitter checklist

• Link to relevant pull requests, esp. upstream and downstream changes
• Ensure you have provided tests - that demonstrates feature works or fixes the issue

I need to look at adding the msi build to the Jenkinsfile so we can catch things like the previous implementation before they get merged.

Did you want to do this before merging of this?

Let me scope it out at least

My scoping of the work to add the MSI build to the Jenkinsfile showed that it might be better to go to a newer version of Wix before trying that. Is there a way we can run a test release flow with this PR to make sure it won't break it?

I wonder if the easiest way would be to change it to the VM agent and then prepare it as part of adding CI to this repo?
