0ae8bf8dbc msi: do not create AppData\Roaming\npm
This effectively reverts e431cae7e7 due to
security concerns. The directory is being created with elevated
privileges but its path may depend on an unprivileged user's environment
variables. Creating a directory in certain sensitive locations can cause
Windows to become inoperable.

Creating AppData\Roaming\npm was an intentional addition in order to
resolve https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/8141, which
appears to have been a common issue for users of npm. However, this was
implemented before 4cfe5eb9af, which
changed the MSI installation scope to perMachine. There were concerns
about creating the npm directory in that PR, albeit not related to
security (see https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/pull/25640).

build: remove unused language files
i18n in the Windows installer was disabled in 2016 for Reasons and never
re-enabled.

There have been no complaints about lack of localization in the
intervening years, suggesting there isn't a huge demand for it either.

Let's remove the files because it was confusing at least one potential
contributor.

Clarify the behavior of what Boxstarter may do when it runs on a box
to install all the necessary tools so that there are no surprises to
the end user when the script is run.

Currently there is no interface that warns the user that Boxstarter
will reboot the machine possibly multiple times depending on how many
dependencies need to be installed and doesn't mention a need to disable
UAC. For folks who see what may look like a reboot loop, we feel it is
necessary to make them aware that UAC will be disabled and they will
need to take action to re-enable UAC manually if they interfere/stop
the script from finishing.

0461dd9b94 win,msi: install Boxstarter from elevated shell
Boxstarter asks for elevation to install packages, but not to install
Boxstarter itself. Thus, run all the commands from an elevated
PowerShell.

win,msi: highlight installation of 3rd-party tools
Currently, the installation wizard more or less silently installs
third-party software (Boxstarter + Chocolatey). This adds some text
to the MSI installation dialog and to the Boxstarter installation
script.

9d71e6a607 src: deprecate global COUNTER_* and remove perfctr
To support Performance Counters on Windows, a number of
global `COUNTER_` methods were added that are undocumented
and really only intended to be used internally by Node.js.

Unfortunately, the perfctr support apparently hasn't even
worked for quite a while and no one has even complained.

This removes the perfctr support and replaces the global
functions with deprecated non-ops for now, with the intent
of removing those outright in the next major release cycle.

988be43e33 tools,win: fix find_python error
On a machine without `python.exe` in the PATH the script was failing
with:

```console
> .\vcbuild.bat
Looking for Python 2.x
2> was unexpected at this time.
```

Escaping the `>` seems to resolve it.
