Description

I'm not 100% sure if this _isn't_ possible now, but I can't find it. In our electron app, we are using a native library that requires settings the UAC Execution Level to Administrator. (For the moment, we are testing this by right-clicking on the exe and running as administrator directly). We would like this to be baked into the manifest of the exe. I'm not sure if this can be done via nuspec or not.

Is this currently possible with windows-installer `electronWinstalerConfig`? If not, what would it take to add it -- with some initial guidance I would be willing to have a go at adding it.
