Windows installer

[nickg]

Starting from 1.12 there is now a standalone Windows MSI installer on the releases page:

nvc-1.12.0.msi

This is built in the Clang MSYS2 environment but packages all the required dependencies so that no MSYS2 installation is required. This avoids the problem where dependencies of the MSYS2 packages could quickly become out-of-date (e.g. LLVM), and is also a bit simpler for the end user.

The installer will add the nvc binary to the system path so it should be immediately usable from command prompt or Powershell.

Please provide any feedback here.

You can also now install it with the Windows package manager:

winget install NickGasson.NVC
