By default cl.exe is not present in PATH on Windows, you need to call vcvarsall.bat to get cl in PATH. So some IDE's like VS / Qt Creator / etc actually call it for us. Also looks like cmake do something similar.
So investigate if we are able to call it, and what it takes to add this call to generated build.ninja file.
