Merged: Yes


If msbuild is already on PATH, use that one instead of searching through known install locations. This way, if a user or contributor has already added msbuild to PATH (e.g. by running from a "Developer Command Prompt" for VS 2015 or 2017), the build uses the expected version of the tools.
