Closes #153438.

The aka.ms/nugetclidl redirect no longer resolves to nuget.exe, which
breaks Windows build bootstrapping when no suitable Python is installed.

This change:

  • uses the current NuGet CLI download URL in both the regular Windows build
    bootstrap and MSI external-dependency bootstrap;
  • updates the matching Windows documentation; and
  • adds a Build NEWS entry.

Validation:

  • Tools/patchcheck/patchcheck.py against the staged diff
  • git diff --cached --check
  • replacement endpoint returns HTTP 200 with
    Content-Type: application/x-msdownload

The Windows batch execution itself was not run locally because the development
host is macOS.

  • Issue: PCbuild/find_python.bat uses broken aka.ms/nugetclidl URL for downloading nuget.exe #153438

Sorry, something went wrong.
