SCons doesn't detect Visual Studio 2019 properly, which may cause build issues as soon as appveyor updates its images #9446

Description

@LeonarddeR

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install Visual Studio 2019, delete 2017
  2. Try to build NVDA

Actual behavior:

SCons prints an error that it couldn't find the universal platform components.

Expected behavior:

SCons prints an error indicating that Visual Studio 2017 is required

Additional details

Testing on my system reveals that SCons detects VS2019 as version 14.1, rather than 14.2. I think this is likely to break things as soon as appveyor updates their images with VS2019.
