packaging: isolate invocation of WiX to own function Like we did for Inno, we want to split out the building of Mercurial from invoking the packaging tool so that we can introduce an alternate build mechanism. As part of this refactor, there are inconsequential changes to file layouts. Before, some shared files such as the WiX binaries and merge modules would be installed under build/. Now, they are installed under build/wix-*. This is to keep implementation simpler. But it also helps keep build state more isolated. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8474

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
