Sridhar Periyasamy fb61e69a79 First pass at building Windows MSI for the dotnet CLI repo. 
- Use the heat tool to harvest the stage2 dir and create install-files.wxs
- dotnet.wxs contains the XML code which is constant across builds for an MSI.
- Use Candle and Light to generate the MSI from install-files.wxs and dotnet.wxs.

Default Install Location - %ProgramFiles%/dotnet.
Adds <InstallRoot>\bin %PATH%
Creates %DOTNET_HOME% pointing to <InstallRoot>

WiX.Toolset.2015

This is a utility project that brings the Wix Tools down and lets us publish it as though it were an app. Do NOT add any C# code to it! It is not designed to actually be compiled as an assembly, it's just used for its dependencies.
