ci: use an 8.3-safe placeholder for the msi template

WiX derives a short name for any name that is not valid 8.3, and a patch
cannot rewrite a truncated placeholder, so a long placeholder would leave the
package's short names pointing at it. RDAPPNAM is eight characters like
"RustDesk" and needs no short name, keeping the template as close to the
shipped package as the mechanism allows.
