Windows SP installer should not always roll back when shibd fails to start
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: SSPCPP-517
                 URL: https://issues.shibboleth.net/jira/browse/SSPCPP-517
             Project: Shibboleth SP - C++
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Installation / Packaging
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0
            Reporter: Elliot Kendall
            Assignee: Scott Cantor
            Priority: Minor


The SP Windows installer currently installs the software, tries to start shibd, and then removes the software if shibd does not start. Troubleshooting the reason that shibd did not start generally requires that the SP software be installed, however.

Either disable the rollback functionality completely, or provide an option (GUI or command line) to let the user disable it.
