2017 [](start = 19, length = 4)

if you look into this commit:
https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/pull/33969/files
they set VSVersion to vs2019 and platformToolsSet to v141
I'm not sure about toolset but vsversion as vs2019 make more sense.

__PlatformToolset=v142 is what shipped with VS2019 by default, so I choose this option. v141 could be installed there, but as well and v140 so I choose default for VS2019.
CMake 3.13 shipped with VS2019 does not support "Visual Studio 16 2019" generator, so that's why this one strange value for __VSVersion

I thought that the current Cmake version that is out doesn't yet support this because the VS2017 generator uses the v141 toolset and VS2019 Preview2 had a breaking change which changed the toolset version file name, so cmake wouldn't find the compiler. Then on preview3 that was fixed. And @kant2002 is correct, v142 is the toolset for VS2019.

In corefx we haven't been able to yet build with VS 2019 Preview2 or Preview3, until cmake 3.14 is out the door and points to the right toolset version, but this is the needed change and in corefx we will have to move the toolset to v142.

@safern So you approve this PR, right?

Note that the __VSVersion string that we set in corefx in build-native.cmd we override it when we call cmake with the generator to use VS2017 generator for now. That will be fixed once cmake 3.14 is out of the door and supports VS2019 generator. https://github.com/dotnet/corefx/blob/master/src/Native/Windows/gen-buildsys-win.bat#L17

So basically the values that we're setting to in build-native.cmd are ignored.
