180b907cff Fix: Dangerzone installed using an msi built with WiX Toolset v3 is not uninstalled by an msi built with WiX Toolset v5
Fix the issue by adding some extra functionality to the "Next" button on the welcome screen of the installer. When the user clicks it to proceed with the installation this:
1. Flips the install scope to "perUser" which is the default in WiX v3
2. Finds the older installation
3. And finally flips the scope back to "perMachine" which is the default in WiX v4 and newer

TODO: Revert this once we are reasonably certain there are no affected Dangerzone Installations?
