Summary0008210: CPack NSIS generator should allow finding makensis on path on WIN32 too
DescriptionNSIS Generator only works if NSIS is installed with admin privileges on Windows.

Only having makensis in path should work too, as it allows using "portable" installs of NSIS
Steps To Reproduce
Additional Informationin cmCPackNSISGenerator:351, InitializeInternal() function returns 0 on Windows if registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\NSIS does not exist.

This registry key is only set if NSIS is installed with admin privileges.

Finding the program makensis in PATH like for other systems should be the fallback on windows.
