Uninstall Native Instruments Plugins using PowerShell

# Uninstalls all Native Instruments Plugins on Windows
# ====================================================
# NI plugins can quickly get a bit out of hand, as there are so many of it. The officiall uninstall
# instructions are to do it manually via program manager, this does the same but speeds up the 
# process slightly.
# Note that this simply calls all the uninstallers after you confirmed it. Meaning you still have to 
# click through the uninstallers, but at least not manually start them.
