Outdated information about rustup

On the page https://forge.rust-lang.org/infra/other-installation-methods.html, it states the following, under reasons not to use rustup:

GUI installation and integration with "Add/Remove Programs" on Windows. rustup runs in the console and does not register its installation like typical Windows programs. If you prefer a more typical GUI installation on Windows there are standalone .msi installers. In the future rustup will also have a GUI installer on Windows.

However, rustup now registers itself in the "Add/Remove Programs" list. See rust-lang/rustup#2670 and https://blog.rust-lang.org/2021/04/27/Rustup-1.24.0.html for more details. The part about the GUI is still correct.
