Running VS 2019 installer within Wine #9

Hello, as I was inspired by this project I'd like to inform you that installation of VS build tools 2019 and 2015 is possible using the 2019 installer in wine with a simple hack on top of wine-staging 4.18, see https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47626. The build environment works and produces valid results.

Having the MSVC installers work within Wine would be wonderful-- it would greatly simplify this project!

I'll be watching that Wine issue to see if/when it gets released. :)
