[wix-users] Restart with Standard user as opposed to Admin user.

[Rob Mensching]

Don't execute the restart yourself. Tell the engine you want a force restart by returning restart required.

What seems to happen is the following:

1. 'standard' user logs in. They run the burn install.
2. Installer requests admin privileges and throws up a UAC prompt with an Admin log in request.
    Accept the UAC with Admin credentials.
3. .Net framework gets installed and requests a restart. 
     I do this in OnExecutePackageComplete, by calling InvokeShutdown on the BoostrapperDispatcher.
     In OnShutdown I return Result.Restart.
4. 'standard' user logs back in. 
    *This is the point where my installer doesn't restart* 5. If I log out and log in as the Admin user, then my installer *does* restart.

I expected the installer to restart on the standard user log in and then prompt for UAC etc again to continue the installation.
