[lldb-dev] lldb-3.8.1 prebuilt binary for windows7

[Hans Wennborg via lldb-dev]

The only thing needed to build the installer should be having NSIS
installed and building the "package" target generated by CMake. The
other prerequisites are mostly for building the visual studio
clang-format plugin.

Having said that, you don't even have to build the installer to see
what goes in it. Just building the "install" target generated by CMake
will install the same set of files.

I'm not sure how LLDB's cmake files are organized, but in the end
what's required is invoking the install() command:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.0/command/install.html  In LLVM, this
is done automatically by macros such as add_llvm_executale, etc.
