[issue7231] Windows installer does not add \Scripts folder to the path

[Sridhar Ratnakumar]

FWIW, since last year ActivePython 2.6/2.7 puts C:\PythonXY\Scripts and %APPDATA%\Python\Scripts in %PATH% and we haven't had any complaints so far.

In addition, we also create a versioned interpreter executable - C:\PythonXY\pythonxy.exe - that is something the official installer can do as well, as it makes it possible to just type, say, "python27" when multiple Python versions are installed ... similar to typing 'python2.7' on *nix.
