[issue5095] msi missing from "bdist --help-formats"

[Steven Bethard]

You're right that the msi feature could use some more documentation. I
created a documentation feature request: issue5563.

As to why the .msi is specific to the creating version of Python, it's
because no one has written the code necessary to be version agnostic -
see issue5311.
