Reduce the installer size by 30~35%

Browse Source 
Closes #2175
As of now npp installer is not using any compression to reduce the installer size. I don't know if there is any history behind not using any compression algorithm.

But I noticed a reasonable difference after using /SOLID lzma compression technique. It reduces the installer size by 30~35%.
If we uses /FINAL lzma, it is improved by 15~18%.
