Refactor Windows installer update process to improve file handling and cleanup

- Updated the `swapUpdateStaging` macro to streamline the update process by swapping the old and new versions of Farm Control more efficiently.
- Introduced a cleanup step to remove leftover `.old` directories from previous updates, enhancing the installer’s reliability.
- Improved logging for better visibility during the update and removal processes, ensuring users are informed of actions taken.
