swc-windows-installer.py: Use regular expressions to POSIX-ify paths
On a Windows 7 SP1 box with Python 2.7.3:
>>> import os.path
>>> os.path.expanduser('~')
'c:/Users/JohnDoe'
That wasn't matching the previous POSIX-ification patterns, which
assumed the drive prefix would be uppercase (C:). Now we use a
regular expression to match both cases.

swc-windows-installer.py: Split out zip_install into its own function
This makes it easy to install other packages besides nano. I've also
added SHA1 checks to avoid installing packages that don't match the
expected hash. This lets us trust ZipFile.extractall instead of
extracting from a hard-coded list of approved files.

I used a slightly different bin path than we'd used previously, to
respect

~/.swc, 2013-10-21).

swc-windows-installer.py: Remove nesting setup/

Anyone consuming this material can use submodules and pick their own
target directory.

swc-windows-installer.py: Rework install paths to use ~/.swc
Instead of cluttering the user's home directory with multiple
SWC-installed directories, reduce clutter and improve namespacing by
dumping everything inside ~/.swc. Think of it as a SWC-specific
~/.local. We avoid actually using ~/.local because users might
already be using that for other purposes.
Use os.makedirs to create the nano install directory if it does not
already exist, because ZipFile.extract uses os.mkdir internally, and
mkdir will not recursively create directories.

swc-windows-installer.py: Remove IPython and nose entry points
Ethan thought these had been fixed upstream, and Aron Ahmadia pointed
to the Anaconda v1.6.2 release notes [1]:
2013-07-09: 1.6.2: (Windows only)
Fixed path being incorrectly appended on Windows during install
That means we can drop our entry point scripts and fall back to just
installing Nano and setting up EDITOR.

swc-windows-installer.py: Generalize update_bash_profile
And rename from make_bash_profile now that we're appending instead of
creating (since
c5d5414, Append exports to end of .bash_profile

This more general form can be used to add even more paths, for example
our IPython and nosetest entry points.

swc-windows-installer.py: Bring in Ethan's make_bash_profile and make_posix_path
This integerates some of Ethan's nano-installer changes. In the pull
request, Ethan elaborates on the .bash_profile choice [1]:
In response to comments on the Tutors list the installer now uses
.bash_profile instead of .bashrc and appends the lines rather than
overwriting the file. I have also added comments that indicate where
the new lines in .bash_profile come from.
Once the Python version is in I'll move on to getting this compiled
into a .exe file, which should be more familiar to our students and
won't run into issues with Canopy installs opening the file in
Canopy rather than executing it.
The referenced tutors@ discussion is in the messages leading up to
[2], where Ethan top-quotes a discussion with R. David Murray about
the relative merits of .bash_profile and .bashrc. The imporant point
David made was that .bash_profile is only executed once at login,
while .bashrc is executed for each new shell. Putting PATH appends in
.bash_profile means that you don't end up adding duplicate entries to
the PATH as you spawn subshells. For example:
${ORIGINAL_PATH}:${NANO_PATH}:${NANO_PATH}:...
