[wix-users] Start windows service with some parameters only once

[Christopher Painter]

InstallUtil is an antipattern from a WiX / MSI perspective.  It's out of process self registration that is prone to failure.

Is that a C# service class that you install with InstallUtil?
If so, then you can pass arguments to InstallUtil when installing the service.
