tfsBranchName does not work on VS2019

tfsBranchName does not work in VS2019, because it somehow fails to resolve the new vesions of the TFS assemblies, despite having "Specific Version"=false for the references.

Manual matching of the assemblies to the loaded assemblies in AssemblyResolve fixes the issue, though:

    YourVsixPackageConstructor()
            AppDomain.CurrentDomain.AssemblyResolve += CurrentDomain_AssemblyResolve;
        }

        private System.Reflection.Assembly CurrentDomain_AssemblyResolve(object sender, ResolveEventArgs args)
        {
            if (args.Name.StartsWith("Microsoft.TeamFoundation.") || args.Name.StartsWith("Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.")) {
                var aname = new System.Reflection.AssemblyName(args.Name);
                foreach (var asm in AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies())
                {
                    if (asm.GetName().Name == aname.Name)
                        return asm;
                }
            }
            return null;
        }

Thanks, I'll implement this! Specific Version=false will only work if there are Assembly bindings set up for this assembly in devenv, which doesn't seem to be the case. So I believe your solution is the best. The only other option would be to reference the Nuget package for the TFS client, but this would bloat the extension.

Fixed with 4.3.3, let me know if you notice any issue.
