Graham Bloice ac2883f5e8 NSIS uninstaller: ensure the uninstaller runs with elevated privileges
The uninstaller should run with elevated privileges to allow deletion
of files from protected directories.

Modifying the uninstall script to require elevation then causes the
uninstaller_installer that creates the uninstaller to also require
elevation which happens at build time so defeat that
by setting the env var __COMPAT_LAYER to "RunAsInvoker" before calling
the uninstaller_installer.

Achieving this from CMake requires a script to call to set the env var
and then calling the executable.
