This makes the built DLL and .lib's contain the toolset version if the build is
carried out using Visual Studio 2017 or later, unless the
'msvc14x-parallel-installable' option is set to be false during configuration.
The reasoning behind this change is that there are subtle problems when, for
instance, one tries to link to a Visual Studio 2017-built glibmm when building
gtkmm and libxml++ with Visual Studio 2019. This is unfortunate as
Microsoft did try hard to make interoperating between binaries built with
Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019 as easy as possible in terms of ABI and API,
but unfortunately this hits the corner cases where this compatibility does not
work.
As the name suggests, this attempts to make Visual Studio 2017 and 2019
builds share a single set of underlying C DLLs easier, while avoiding breakages
caused by such subtle differences.
