New Windows Installers for Testing

[Thibaut Cuvelier]

Dear list,

I just tried this installer. It looks like it's missing a kind of
signature:

Also, when starting the installer, it complained that LyX was already open,
even though it was just a development version. I suppose that this check
should be performed much later, i.e. just when actually starting the
installation: is the LyX version installed in that folder already started?

I also lost some settings. The first thing I do with LyX is open the
Outline pane, which was closed. However, the recent documents list and the
shortcuts were preserved.

(Windows 10 2004 x64, build 19041.264.)
