VS: Use Visual Studio Installer to locate VS 2017

Brad King requested to merge brad.king/cmake:vs15-detect-from-installer into master

VS 2017 and later may no longer populate the Windows Registry entries CMake has traditionally used to find the VS installations. This is because VS now supports having multiple installations of the same version. The Visual Studio Installer tool provides a COM interface we can query to locate installations.
