Install VS2010.

I have a project for VS2010 which i cannot update (yet) without breaking it, and that’s the only working solution i found. While on local you can use VS2017 to work with files, you still need VS2010 installed for v100 toolset…

Anyway, someone put all what’s needed on Chocolatey, so under Actions it’s one-liner…

- run: choco install vcexpress2010

…which downloads and runs

https://download.microsoft.com/download/1/D/9/1D9A6C0E-FC89-43EE-9658-B9F0E3A76983/vc_web.exe

This adds ~5-6 minutes to job run time, just to grab and prepare VS2010; not so great, but not so terrible either. Would love to see better/faster solution for this one, but currently it’s all i got.
