Multiple Visual Studio 2019: selecting version in bootstrap.bat #715

Hi,

I've got multiple versions of Visual Studio 2019 on my build machine. Currently bootstrap.bat always selects the "latest" one (which is usually the current Preview version). It would be cool having a command line option to specify the version-range in the same way vswhere expects it. Additionally, disabling of preview versions would also be a useful option

bootstrap.bat --version [16.8,16.9) --no-preview
