Summary0012356: add an optional version check before installing a component via NSIS
Description
add an optional version check before installing a component via NSIS:

This can be down via a new option VERSION:

cpack_add_component(compname
                    [DISPLAY_NAME name]
                    [DESCRIPTION description]
                    [HIDDEN | REQUIRED | DISABLED ]
                    [GROUP group]
                    [DEPENDS comp1 comp2 ... ]
                    [INSTALL_TYPES type1 type2 ... ]
                    [DOWNLOADED]
                    [VERSION maj min rev] **
                    [ARCHIVE_FILE filename])

If VERSION is present, then a registry key will be added with name [DISPLAY NAME] and with a version Key.
If VERSION is not present, the registry key will not be added.

And via adding a new cpack variable:

CPACK_NSIS_CHECK_VERSION_BEFORE_INSTALL ON / OFF

If this variable is at ON, and if the VERSION option is present, then we check the installed registry key and the application is installed if:
- the registry key is present and maj >= maj_installed min >= min_installed rev > rev_installed

Sending old, never assigned issues to the backlog.

(The age of the bug, plus the fact that it's never been assigned to anyone means that nobody is actively working on it...)

If an issue you care about is sent to the backlog when you feel it should have been addressed in a different manner, please bring it up on the CMake mailing list for discussion. Sign up for the mailing list here, if you're not already on it: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake [^]

It's easy to re-activate a bug here if you can find a CMake developer who has the bandwidth to take it on, and ferry a fix through to our 'next' branch for dashboard testing.
