Adds support for "uninstall" parameter for exe uninstallers created by jpackage.
Added logging and error reporting to exe uninstallers.
- jpackage jni lib (jpackage.cpp): added functionality to extract ProductCode property from msi file before the file is embedded in exe installer. Extracted value of ProductCode property is saved as another resource entry in exe installer. Value of this property is needed for uninstall.
- exe installer (MsiWrapper.cpp): added functionality to extract value of ProductCode from the resources and use it to uninstall the product. The code is not invoking msiexec.exe, but uses MSI API directly. Besides improved logging and error reporting. Previously it didn't exist at all, nothing was written to console/message box displayed in case of any errors.
