Setup VS Dev Environment

(2)Caution
I am generally an absentee maintainer. I update this package if and when I personally need an update. It may be years before I see or respond to your issues or pull requests. I do not recommend that you rely on this package for critical infrastructure. If you find this action useful and do want to use it, I suggest that you make a copy of it into your own repository.
GitHub Action for setting Visual Studio build environment variables and paths for subsequent steps in the job.
This can be especially useful for building C++ using the MSVC compiler using build tools like CMake which lack the good sense to find VS themselves.
The action can find any compatible VS installation (via required VS components), though it will still always run the vsdevenv command and update the
environment accordingly.
