VS: Add option to select the version of the toolset used by VS 2017
Add new `version=` parameter in the toolset setting to select the version. Add variable `CMAKE_VS_PLATFORM_TOOLSET_VERSION` to hold the version, if one is set (blank indicates default). Fixes: #17549

+CMAKE_VS_PLATFORM_TOOLSET_VERSION
+---------------------------------
+
+Visual Studio Platform Toolset version.
+
+The :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2017 and above allow to
+select minor versions of the same toolset. The toolset version number
+may be specified by a field in :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET` of
+the form ``version=14.11``. If none is specified CMake will choose a default
+toolset. The value may be empty if no minor version was selected and the
+default is used.
