* desktop: fix Windows in-app updater corrupting install by exiting before the MSI runs The Windows install path ran msiexec while the app was still running and waited for it. The running JVM holds SimpleX.exe, the JRE and DLLs open, so the per-machine MSI upgrade cannot replace them, defers to a reboot, and the install ends up broken - the app fails to launch (#7105). Launch the installer and exit instead, so the files are unlocked; the user reopens from the Start Menu. Also pass the path via the array form of exec (fixes spaces in the path) and remove a leftover installer before the next download, since the exiting app can no longer delete it itself. * docs: plan justifying the Windows in-app MSI updater fix
