[issue1654408] Windows installer should split tcl/tk and tkinter install options.

[Zachary Ware]

Zachary Ware  added the comment:

Since installing tkinter without Tcl/Tk would leave tkinter unusable without a 
separately installed and configured Tcl/Tk (and thus probably generate copious 
reports about tkinter being broken), I don't think this is a good idea.  If 
someone *really* wants a different Tcl/Tk environment, they can always create 
their own.  Closing as rejected.

Terry's suggestion about being able to install Tcl/Tk extensions sounds 
reasonable, but I haven't played around with it and that should have its own 
issue if we're going to do anything with it.

In support of closing this, I note that we have gone the opposite direction on 
Mac, installing current tcl/tk together with _tkinter compiled against the 
tcl/tk being installed.
