download_file: curl didn't follow redirects (so it couldn't download innosetup)

And add comment explaining that wget is broken for HTTPS connections:

"""
NOTE: On WinXP at least, wget no longer is able to establish a SSL connection
to servers. We ship an old support/wget.exe, but a new build doesn't work either.
However a new build takes the --no-check-certificate option, while our wget.exe
doesn't seem to have any corresponding option. However, a recent wget build from
https://eternallybored.org/misc/wget/ is 1.7MB zipped, so not switching to it.

On Windows XP SP3 or later, could also use powershell to download files.
