hide program modules in Custom Install panel of Windows installer

Browse source 
We all know that LibreOffice is not a suite of six office applications,
Writer, Calc, Draw, Impress, Math and Base. LibreOffice is more or less
monolithic. Yet, for marketing reasons probably, Windows installer
offered the option to de-select any of the six applications. From
the technical point of view, it did not make much sense. The saved disk
space was negligible. On the other hand many issues could occur.
For example fdo#67130, LibreOffice cannot start if LibreLogo is
installed while Writer is not, or fdo#70226, Writer crashes when
bibliography database is selected, when Base isn't installed.

We need less complexity, fewer options. It is hard to imagine a user
who insists on having just Writer and Calc but not Impress and Draw,
etc. The new start center BTW does not make starter icons inactive
for not installed applications.
