 From the commit message:

 {{{
 Bug 23561: Fix NSIS builds for Windows 64

 This commit adds support for building the 64-bit version of NSIS, and
 also bumps the verison to 3.03. Doing this enables us to build MAR files
 in a 64-bit container for the 64-bit version of Tor Browser; see bug
 26363 and bug 24477.

 The pe_checksum_fix.py doesn't work in a 64-bit container with the
 bundled python-pefile version so we build its latest version to fix this
 issue. This change is borrowed from commit bb32ec9 and updates
 python-pefile to 2017.11.5.

 The Debian package and the patches are no longer required as all changes
 were merged upstream in 3.01-1. (See the nsis changelog in Debian.)
 }}}

 After building Tor Browser nightly 32- and 64-bit, we get the respective
 NSIS installers. (Tested on Windows 10.)
