Add registry value for easy detection. For example, the presence of a single key of 6.0.* x64. This is much faster than MSI detection.
Note there are currently two GUIDs, one for 6.0.* x64 and one for 6.0.* x86.
fixes#6090
Current README uses a PNG which doesn't scale for high dpi displays (starts to look fuzzy).
Created 64 pixel wide version of svg of the black logo and inserted into README.md.
Note that it currently doesn't render as the absolute URL points to master so that it gets
rendered correctly in other places where the README.md is used (like docker hub).
Changes the Windows start menu folder name from ProductSemanticVersionWithName to ProductSemanticVersionWithNameAndOptionalArchitecture - now the start menu is `PowerShell` for all versions.
This is the continuation of PR 5499 that had to be abandoned due to a fatal merge conflict and I did not want to risk accidentally reverting recent fixes.
Remove unnecessary/unused default for productGuid because it always gets a new Guid when being called from Start-PSPackage
Add defaults for required files but also add extra path validation attribute
Rename ProductGuid to ProductCode
Make explorer context menu registry entries platform specific to allow them to work also when both x86 and x64 are installed. The main menu has a " (x86)" appended to the main menu as well.
Fix bug #5597: x86/x64 installer are uninstalling each other when installing either of them:
-Make x86 installer to be installed as an x86 component (-arch argument to candle.exe, which sets the `sys.BUILDARCH` variable)
-Make the UpgradeCode unique per platform
-Replace `var.ProductTargetArchitecture` variable with sys.BUILDARCH use to have only 1 variable for the architecture
-Additionally, the architecture was appended to the package name to be able to distinguish the installations.
Move definition of Launch PowerShell checkbox to the top to allow toggling it using the spacebar (the Enter key already defaults to the Finish button).
Reuse product name variable.
A new dialogue is added in the Windows installer to offer the option of adding explorer.exe context menus to open PowerShell in the current location as a normal shell or as administrator. The context menu entries are achiveven via registry entries and is available when right-clicking on:
- the background of explorer
- a folder in explorer
- a drive in explorer
- on the Desktop
- Rename powershell.exe to pwsh.exe
- Fixe appveyor.psm1
- Update MSI to include 'pwsh' in path and app paths
- Revert change for hyper-v powershell direct
- Update names in packaging.psm1.
- Fix check for SxS

* A simple and minimal fix of 4665 to check for the Visual Studio C++ 2015 redistributables. Note that this is specific to 2015 (vcruntime140.dll refers to the Visual Studio version 14.0, which maps to Visual Studio 2015).
A previous check registry check of 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DevDiv\VC\Servicing\14.0\RuntimeMinimum' failed because when the redistributables are installed via Windows update (which does not use MSI), then the registry entry did not get populated.
The 'Pending' attribute was removed from existing tests since the download links are now present again and the tests were improved using Pester TestCases.
* Fixed typo spotted in code review of PR 4745
* Remove DirectorySearch Id duplication by defining it once and referencing according to this special trick in the official WiX documentation here: http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/howtos/files_and_registry/directorysearchref.html

Added comment why there is no assertion about the StatusCode.
* Replace download links with link to pre-requisites page as suggested in PR 4745 because this page is easier to update
* Compilation error CNDL0012 fix: WiX does not allow lowercase characters for file search property Ids because due to them being used for a search property means that they must be public, hence lowercase is not allowed.
* #4458 MSI installer checks that the Windows C Runtime and VS Studio 2015 C++ redistributables are present and returns error message if not.
Includes tests to check that the Wix file contains the download URLs and those URLs are not dead.
Added a checkbox (unchecked by default) to the last dialogue of the Windows installer to provide the option of opening PowerShell because that's what most people want to do if they installed PowerShell.

Moved Unix package code into New-UnixPackage, switching on $Types to
call the appropriate function given the list of types.
Also fixed bug with chmod on a symlink; it was unnecessary.
