Add ability to select which version of LabVIEW Runtime is compatible with executable

[MaximeR]

Since LabVIEW 2017, the default build specification check the option "Allow future versions of the LabVIEW Runtime to run this application".

I don't undertstand why it is checked by default when you read the help that said "Disabling this option prevents any changes to the performance profiles and helps you avoid unexpected problems resulting from compiler upgrades."

Because NI and me doesn't know the future, NI will never garanty that your application will run with all the future LV Runtime. I know it well because I'm facing this issue with le LV RT 2020 that breaks the execution of different application that I have buid in 2017 SP1.

The behavior is a little strange too, because, even if you have the run-time use to build the application on your computer, the application will use the highest one present one the computer.

This options can be very usefull, and I appreciate it, but maybe we need to have more control on it. So my idea is to give to the user the ability to list supported or unsupported LabVIEW Runtime.

This will help us managing future LV Runtime without having to recompile the application which seems to be the goal of this option.

for Example :

[MyApplication]

ExcludeLVRTe = "2020,2021"

That's the idea to add ability to control the behavior from the INI file of the app after the execution is built.

For information to @thols, I reproduce my broken build only when I was using the partner DVD suite to install my LabVIEW 2017. If I install it from another sources (like downloading standalone LabVIEW installer), the compatibility issue was not present. So, when this kind of bug depends on the media used to install labVIEW, it's a big soruce of problem.

regards.
