Windows installer: remove explicit InstallScope setting.

Browse Source 
It turns out this isn't actually necessary after all to make the

consequences in more complicated cases, which I'm not expert enough in
MSI to fully understand.

We force the install scope to perMachine, largely because I
don't really understand how to make it usefully switchable

install PuTTY locally in a user account, I hope they'll send a
well explained patch!
$(var.Puttytextver) is again defined on the candle command
line, and describes the version of PuTTY in human-readable
form, e.g. "PuTTY 0.67" or "PuTTY development snapshot [foo]".
