I assume this will also fix the issue with broken builds on Travis when we hit the github API limit |

Oh. If you are interested you can try to do this. I plan to merge #732 soon, so upgrading the bootstrapper would be ok. |

With the ongoing outage/difficult connectivity of github we need a solution to run our builds. The current situation is that the most builds only contain the paket.bootstrapper.exe. When this fails downloading from github, like it happened the last days from time to time the build stops.
Therefore I introduced a fallback that downloads the nuget.exe and make a
nuget install paketto extract the paket.exe and copy it to the desired target location.
