(nsis) needs large string support

[cbielow]

Expected Behavior

When using NSIS from Chocolatey to create an installer for Windows, this installer currently cannot handle strings larger than ~1024 characters. This makes it almost impossible for the installer to augment the users $PATH (i.e. add any directories for the installed software there). I would expect Chocolatey to use the 'special build version' which can handle up to 8k strings.

Current Behavior

See above. The reason is this: https://github.com/kichik/nsis/blob/master/SCons/config.py#L11 default, when NSIS is build.

This has widespread consequences, since GitHub actions is using the Chocolatey NSIS in its runners, i.e. all NSIS-based installers created with GHActions are affected. see https://github.com/actions/runner-images/blob/main/images/win/scripts/Installers/Install-NSIS.ps1

Possible Solution

Use https://sourceforge.net/projects/nsis/files/NSIS%203/3.09/nsis-3.09-strlen_8192.zip/download instead of the current https://sourceforge.net/projects/nsis/files/NSIS%203/3.09/nsis-3.09-setup.exe/download , if that is possible.
