Standardize Various Visual Studio File Names #6

Standardize Various Visual Studio File Names

Symptoms

Within the various independant repositories that are associated with the WinMerge-v2 repo, the file names for build commands (.cmd), solution files (.sln) and project files (.vcxproj) are not cleanly standardized from one repo to the next. Some aspects of the repos are not really set up to handle multiple versions of VS. This becomes more noticable as we move toward migrating these repos to use the new VS2017 environment.

Solution

This Pull Request is one in a collection of three, one Pull Request for each of the repositories:

If any one of these Pull Request are merged, then it is really necessary to merge the other two Pulls as well.

I have replicated this exact explanatory text identically into all three Pull Requests.

The repositories frhed and sevenzip are also components of the overall WinMerge-v2 project, but I have not (yet?) spent any effort to update these two repos to use VS2015. frhed appears to already use VS2015. sevenzip does not have VS solution or project files.

Likewise, I have not yet made any modifications to the Merge7z or ShellExtension solutions within the WinMerge-v2 repo. These were already setup to use VS2015 before I began modernizing the other solutions and projects.

Note

A number of files are committed that simply have changed file names. Git and GitHub handle this correctly, noting that the file name has changed. However, sometimes GitHub's file comparison still presents a full comparison of every line of the file, not simply the very few subsequently changed lines, making it hard to find those few changes. This confusion can be largly eliminated by looking at each single commit. A bit frustrating, sorry...
