#13902: Tor windows installer command line broken

The tor windows installer that can be found at
https://dist.torproject.org/win32/ has a bug with regard to the command
line handling, according to the help & the source it should handle the
command line arguments -x and -b
(https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/tree/contrib/win32build/tor-
mingw.nsi.in#n258), -x to extract all content and -b to extract just the
binaries. The binaries are never extracted, thus the -b switch does
nothing and the -x switch is incomplete, extracting only the
documentation.
I believe this to be because the ExtractBinaries function lacks an
SetOutPath call which the ExtractDocuments function does have.
This is my first ticket on trac so I hope I did this right.
