Add support for building nuget packages Windows ARM32.
The nuget package contains the headers and libs required to cross-compile arm32 binary distribution packages for inclusion in wheels.
Since the arm32 nuget package is being built on x86/x64 build host $(PythonExe) needs to be overridden with a non-arm binary for the build steps. The parameter --python-exe was added to enable the user to specify which python.exe to use. The version of the specified python.exe should match exactly the version of the arm32 binaries being packaged.
