scons detects standalone MSVC on Windows
Under Windows, Scons is now capable of detecting and compiling with standalone MSVC compilers (aka "Visual C++ Build Tools"). http://landinghub.visualstudio.com/visual-cpp-build-tools Tried with version 2015, and native x86 and x64 compilers under Windows 10 pro 64 and Windows 8.1 64, with the default Win8 SDK provided by the "Visual C++ Build Tools" web-installer. Follow the same compiling instructions than for compiling with Visual Studio, except that Visual Studio is no more required. KNOWN ISSUES : - ``methods.detect_visual_c_compiler_version()`` will emit a warning message on computers where the ``VSINSTALLDIR`` environement variable is not present. But it should compile just fine and still automatically detects the 32 or 64 bits according to the compiler you picked. TODO : - eventually, update ``platform/winrt/dectet.py`` with function ``methods.msvc_is_detected()`` and try to compile winrt/UWP with these standalone compilers (if you did not select Win10 SDK when installing the standalone tools, you can run it again). - update doc to make users aware of "Visual C++ Build Tools" aka "stadalone MSVC". - eventually, update ``methods.detect_visual_c_compiler_version()``
