The Windows images provided by GitHub have a native program called
"vswhere", which can be used to find vcvarsall.bat.
* use vswhere to find vcvarsall
* don't require child_process twice
* use vswhere to find the 2015 bat file
* refactor findWithVswhere
* move finding vcbuildtools using vswhere upward
* print error of vswhere
"Visual C++" has its build tool batch files in a different place.
Let's look there as well if we have not found 2017 or 2019 stuff.
Thanks to ReactOS project for figuring this out.

I'll probably use self hosted runners in a project and the Community
version of Visual Studio will be installed on those. This enables the
script to check for Community and Professional editions in addition
to the Entreprise one offered by GitHub.
The modification generates a kinda search map ordered by version then
by edition. It generates the batch script that runs vcvarsall.bat
on the fly given that search map.
Again, this is a squashed commit with around three hours of attempts
to write something working. See comments in the file for more details.
I'm too lazy to document this stuff properly.
Now that I know how to write some simple action, let's make a stub
more complete. For example, I already know what inputs I would like
to handle for this action.
