Summary: Specify working dir for quiet execution custom actions

Initial Comment:
WixUtilExtension has a DLL function (CAQuietExec) for executing command-lines 
in the background (i.e. without a cmd.exe window poping up during the 
installation). The commandline that is actually executed can be specified in a 
property named QtExecCmdLine (or QtExecDeferred respectively).

There is no possibility to specify the working directory for the execution. The 
default working dir of the MSI service or client process (depending on custom 
action scheduling) will be used. In some cases setting the directory is a must, 
for instance when you call a batch-script which works with not configurable 
relative paths.

For such cases having a second property like QtExecWorkDir would be great.
