VS: Add a variable to report the Visual Studio version build number
VS 2017 and above come with a Visual Studio Installer tool that tracks
four-component Visual Studio version numbers. We already detect the VS
version number because it is needed to make some generation decisions.
Provide the number to projects in a `CMAKE_VS_VERSION_BUILD_NUMBER`
variable so they can use it similarly.
Fixes: #24230
