    NSIS uninstaller: ensure the uninstaller runs with elevated privileges
    
    The uninstaller should run with elevated privileges to allow deletion
    of files from protected directories.
    
    Modifying the uninstall script to require elevation then causes the
    uninstaller_installer that creates the uninstaller to also require
    elevation which happens at build time so defeat that
    by setting the env var __COMPAT_LAYER to "RunAsInvoker" before calling
    the uninstaller_installer.
    
    Achieving this from CMake requires a script to call to set the env var
    and then calling the executable.
