Fix for Brackets Issue #6073- "[PM] Installer steals file associations with no warning (for a few users)".

Removed the installing of registry key PerceivedType which appears to be overriding the associated icon set by other apps on Windows 7.

See @SAPlayer's comment here for more details.

Note: this only affects Windows 7 apparently. The reported problem does not exist in Windows 8.x.

@JeffryBooher I think we should merge this then -- that way the build machine will crank out some official installers containing this fix, for people to start testing with.
