#2029425 Installer: option to add WinMerge to PATH
http://winmerge.org/rfe/2029425
This patch adds new feature to installer. When the checkbox "Add WinMerge folder to your system path" is selected WinMerge installation folder is added to system's path variable.
This is handy for people who want to start WinMerge from command prompt. And some 3rd party tools require that the executable they run is in path (don't allow adding a path). One example is Mercurial.
I'm using the "Modify Path" InnoSetup script by Jared Breland. The script is available at:
http://legroom.net/software/modpath
Although the page (or script code) doesn't clearly state it the code is GPL. I've verified this from the author.
The patch file does contain modification only for English.isl language file to make patch smaller. But naturally similar modification is needed for all language files.

I didn't test this very much. I did test the path gets set in virtual machine. And I trust the script does what it says.. :)
Committed updated installer language files (which I forgot in previous commit):
