Windows Offline installer should provide more versions #85

Right now the Windows Offline installer provides only two latest version for installation. The reason is - installer size. Investigate the option to use shallow clone and include multiple versions.

Result of evaluation: It's possible to add more versions to the installation. The problem is that size of offline installer exceeds 2 GB mostly because of tooling and requires turning on support for more than 2 GB disk in Inno Setup. Postponing the feature. Current installer is able to deploy 2 branches.

It might be worthy to consider - per branch Offline installer. The question is whether it has more value than just last two branches in current installer. Opinions? @JurajSadel @igrr

Solved different way: We released separate Offline installer for each branch https://github.com/espressif/idf-installer#table-with-downloads
