MSI installer: turn the desktop icon off by default.

Browse Source 
I rushed out the MSI in too much of a hurry to sort out this kind of
thing, but now we've got leisure to reconsider, I think it's better
behaviour not to clutter everyone's desktops unless specifically asked
to.

separately disableable are the auxiliary ones for desktop
shortcuts, .PPK file extension and modifying PATH.
(And even those are mostly historical - the first two were
checkbox options in Inno Setup, and the third was not done at
all by Inno Setup so people might be surprised by it when
switching to this installer. I don't actually know for sure
that anyone _wants_ to be without these pieces. So all of them
are enabled by default.)
DesktopFeature (the desktop icon) is disabled by default, on
the basis of not cluttering up desktops too much unless
someone actually wants it. The .PPK association and PATH are
behind-the-scenes sorts of thing, so they're on by default.
(The old Inno Setup installer also made it optional whether
PuTTY got a Start Menu subfolder. That seems to be harder in
WiX, because the Start Menu shortcuts are tied in to the
installation of the files themselves, so the Start Menu
subfolder is mandatory if you're using this installer at all.
That doesn't seem unreasonable to me - if you don't want
_that_, you might as well just unpack the zip file and not
bother with an installer at all.)
