Previously, we would search in the Windows registry for the path
to makensis, and fail immediately if we could not read the registry
value, assuming that it was simply not installed.
This change looks for makensis in the PATH even if the registry value
is not there, enabling the scenario where makensis is installed without
admin privileges and never even touches HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE during the
non-admin install.
This authorize more control because one can set
CPACK_ARCHIVE_COMPONENT_INSTALL to ON globally
and then set it selectively to OFF inside
a CPack project config file.
Sidenote: GetOption ought to be a 'const' method.
This fixes bugs #0011355 and 0008342.
The merged patch is a contribution from Michael Lasmanis and Petri Hodju
with some extra documentation added by the merger.
The proposed solution is to avoid to CopyIfDifferent any links
found in CPACK_INSTALLED_DIRECTORIES but memorize them instead
then at the end of the processing for each dir do re-create the
link in the installed tree.
Current patch should work if the link are "local" to the directory.
The idea of the patch is to let the install generator define
CPACK_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_FILES then when CMake is installing
project he will concatenate the list of files and give
it to specific CPack Generator by defining CPACK_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_FILES
to be the list of ALL files that were installed using absolute destination.
An example of use has been applied to RPM generator which now
tries to automatically build a relocatable package.

The multi-argument CompressFiles(...) method has been replace by the
no-argument PackageFiles() method and 3 more member variables. This
will enable implemention of multi-package generators. Now each specific
generator (which overloads PackageFiles()) may decide to change the name
and/or the number of generated package files.
Change types of local variables, or casting, or re-arrange
expressions to get rid of "conversion may alter value" warnings
as seen on recent dashboard submissions from londinium.kitware.
This allows for a built in bzip and zip capability, so external tools
will not be needed for these packagers. The cmake -E tar xf should be
able to handle all compression types now as well.
