The "setup" Windows binary we distribute allows users to "install" Electrum on their system. The distributable is created by NSIS. During installation a bunch of files will get unpacked in %programfiles(x86)%/Electrum, including an "inner" exe that will be the entrypoint for the user to start the application. A shortcut is also created for the inner exe. With this change, there will now be two inner EXEs. One the same as before, the other with a "-debug" suffix in its name. The debug exe is built as a "console" application (as opposed to a "windowed" application), so when launched via double-click a black console window would appear; and also importantly stdin/stdout are handled properly for it (unlike for "windowed" programs). (see #2592) There will not be a shortcut or similar for the debug exe; it would just be there as a debugging option we can instruct users to use when needed. In particular early crashes during startup are hard to debug without stdout/stderr. (see e.g. #6601)patch-4
