Bug 40606: Use Clang to compile NSIS
NSIS officially supports only MSVC and GCC as compilers, so it was one of the two projects forcing us to keep a GCC toolchain for Windows. With this commit, we adapt the tricks Mozilla uses to build NSIS with Clang, and remove the dependency on mingw-w64. The main trick is to use the GNU assembler instead of Clang's internal one to build NSIS's system plugin. Luckily, it can be found in binutils, without a full GCC build.
