Slipstreaming SP's and CU's into the SQL Server 2012 Installer

You can now easily slipstream SQL 2012 installer with Service Packs and CU's.

1. 1.  Create a folder under the installation folder called "Patches"
   2. Download all related files required for the hotfix/CU's into this folder
   3. Go into the Installation folder, go to x64, and update the DefaultSetup.ini folder to include the following line at the end
      1. UpdateSource=".\Patches"  (It's the relative path to the update files)
      2. Save it, copy it and overwrite the DefaultSetup.ini file in x86
      3. Now, run the normal Setup.exe executable in the root of the install folder, and when you run the install, it will present you with a screen showing all the hotfixes it found in that folder, and allow you to include or exclude them to slipstream into the install.
