This release of UIforETW is a small update (I didn't change the version number) that improves how UIforETW searches for the Windows Performance Toolkit install, and xperf.exe. UIforETW needs to shell out to xperf.exe to do its work and it's never been clear how to properly do this. This should resolve issue #159

The full list of changes is:
28b0720 Clean up and improve install-directory locating

The etwpackage*.zip file contains a 64-bit version of UIforETW.exe, statically linked so that it will run anywhere. No compilation required. It also includes 64-bit versions of the Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) installers.

To use this release just download etwpackage*.zip, unzip it, then run bin\UIforETW.exe (signed). Windows Performance Toolkit (WPT) will be installed as needed. Symbols are available on this symbol server: https://randomascii-symbols.commondatastorage.googleapis.com/
