BLD: Auto-detect PlatformToolset

Kojoley · Kojoley · commit 7fe521f81a4b · 2020-02-03T23:43:27.000+03:00
Instead of using `devenv` (which may be not installed (it is IDE part) or
the latest compiler were installed without IDE) modify the project file
and change `PlatformToolset` to pick the default version.
