build-system: document how to create a Windows installer

These are the instructions that I use at this point.

Removed a long obsolete script - it's been many, many years since that last was
useful (it was still using qmake to try to build Subsurface)

# Creating a Windows installer
The scripts here help with cross building Subsurface and smtk2ssrf for Windows.
The preferred method to create a Windows installer is to use our own docker
image that has all the build components pre-assembled.
All it takes is this:
```
cd /some/path/windows
git clone git://github.com/subsurface/subsurface
cd subsurface
git submodule init
git submodule update
docker run -v /some/path/windows:/__w subsurface/mxe-build-container:1.1 /bin/bash /__w/subsurface/packaging/windows/create-win-installer.sh
```
This will result in subsurface-VERSION.exe and smtk2ssrf-VERSION.exe to be created.
