Installer: condition out use of WiX DLL components.

Browse Source 
This arranges that we can build a completely pure MSI file, which
doesn't depend on any native code at install time. We don't lose much
by doing this - only the option to pop up the README file at the end
of installation, and validation of the install directory when you
select it from a file browser.

My immediate use for this is that I want to use it for installers that
will run on Windows on Arm. But it also seems to me like quite an
attractive property in its own right - no native code at all running
at install time would be an _especially_ good guarantee that that code
can't be hijacked by DLLs in the download directory. So I may yet
decide that the features we're losing are not critical to _any_
version of the MSI, and throw them out unconditionally.
