vs install

[kzu]

Installs visual studio from scratch.

vs install -pre|preview -int|internal -sku:[e|ent|enterprise|p|pro|professional|c|com|community] [switches]

The same switches from vs run can be used to add workloads to the installation. These switches are turned into proper --add [workload id] arguments for the underlying bootstrapper.

All other documented arguments are passed through to the underlying bootstrapper as-is.
