[wix-users] Build 64 Bit MSI using WiXToolSet

Hi,

How can I build a 64 Bit MSI using WiXToolSet? I am using Visual Studio
2019. I tried setting the Platform to x64 on the project properties, but no
luck. When I install this MSI, the registry entries are going to 32 bit. I
don't want to individually assign the bitness on each component. Also, as
per the WiX documentation, it is not recommended to set the Platform
property on the Package element. Please help. Also, how can I understand if
the MSI is 32 bit or 64 bit? Can we identify this from Orca?
