LLVM compilers aren't auto-detected at C:\Program Files\LLVM\bin, C:\Program Files (x86)\LLVM\bin, or VS install paths like C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Preview\VC\Tools\Llvm\bin or C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Preview\VC\Tools\Llvm\x64\bin .

Should find clang.exe, clang++.exe, and clang-cl.exe (not sure about clang-cpp.exe).

And cppbuild task support should be added to configure the build correctly.

Was there a reason this wasn't done a long time ago? Was it because our IntelliSense support for clang on Windows had issues?
