Windows installer packaging option #890

Would it be possible to have a windows installer packaging option? As far as I can tell every packaged project with electron requires you to download electron and have ~200 mb of unnecessary files. Wouldn't it be much more efficient to have it download the files to 1 shared folder and "inject" the project into that?

Once you do that it could create another exe file that simply injects the project into electron upon opening, which not only saves a massive amount of space during testing but saves on bandwidth as well?

Perhaps we could have 2 types of installers - a network installer and one that has all assets bundled in? (all assets bundled in would basically just be what we have but you get my point)

This has a lot of the viable advantages of #577 but may be more difficult to create
