VS: WindowsTargetPlatformVersion should allow the generic 10.0 value in VS2019

If you manually set a project's WindowsTargetPlatformVersion to 10.0 use the most recently installed SDK. However, when generating a project via CMake it will find the latest SDK at configuration time, and set it into the project settings, meaning that if you update your SDKs, you must re-generate before VS will use the new SDK.

I've tried both -DCMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION=10.0 -DCMAKE_VS_WINDOWS_TARGET_PLATFORM_VERSION=10.0 but the target version always gets hardcoded in the generated project file.

The default setting for new projects is just "10.0", please see below.
