Attached is a patch for removing the Prev radio button from
setup.exe's chooser page. As previously discussed at [1], that button
doesn't really serve any useful purpose. It might mislead people into
thinking that it delivers a somewhat outdated but proven Cygwin, when
in fact it delivers a rather random mix of packages of widely varying
age that is unlikely to actually work together.

Also attached is a documentation change to go with this.
