Doc: Fix instructions to control build environment with MSVC 

The documentation included some outdated instructions to change the
architecture, build type or target OS of a build done with MSVC.  This
commit updates the documentation to include the modern options
available, down to Visual Studio 2013.

<application>Visual Studio Command Prompt</application>.
If you wish to build a 64-bit version, you must use the 64-bit version of
the command, and vice versa.
In the <productname>Microsoft Windows SDK</productname>, start the
<application>CMD shell</application> listed under the SDK on the Start Menu.
In recent SDK versions you can change the targeted CPU architecture, build
type, and target OS by using the <command>setenv</command> command, e.g.
<command>setenv /x86 /release /xp</command> to target Windows XP or later
with a 32-bit release build. See <command>/?</command> for other options to
<command>setenv</command>. All commands should be run from the
<filename>src\tools\msvc</filename> directory.
Starting with <productname>Visual Studio 2017</productname> this can be
done from the command line using <command>VsDevCmd.bat</command>, see
<command>-help</command> for the available options and their default values.
<command>vsvars32.bat</command> is available in
<productname>Visual Studio 2015</productname> and earlier versions for the
same purpose.
From the <application>Visual Studio Command Prompt</application>, you can
change the targeted CPU architecture, build type, and target OS by using the
<command>vcvarsall.bat</command> command, e.g.
<command>vcvarsall.bat x64 10.0.10240.0</command> to target Windows 10
with a 64-bit release build. See <command>-help</command> for the other
options of <command>vcvarsall.bat</command>. All commands should be run from
the <filename>src\tools\msvc</filename> directory.
