This reminds me that after the fix for JDK-8255713 [1] it is no longer necessary (or recommended) to set the MSVC_VER env variable. I updated the Wiki to reflect that, and also to reflect that we now build using Visual Studio 2019 (although it will still work with VS 2017).

Hi there,
I've cloned OpenJFX locally, but I can't build it, because I need to define
the environment variable WINSDK_DIR. What do I need to set this to and what
do I need to put in that folder

Thanks!

P.S. I only have Windows on a laptop, so I don't know how I can test for
Linux and/or MacOS.
