Switch "cl /?" to "cl /help" in MSVC scripts for platform detection
"cl /?" produces a different output if run on a real or a virtual drive
(this can be set with a simple subst command), causing an error in the
MSVC scripts if building on a virtual drive because the platform to use
cannot be detected.
"cl /help", on the contrary, produces a consistent output if used on a
real or virtual drive. Changing to "/help" allows the compilation to
work with a virtual drive as long as the top of the code repository is
part of the drive, without impacting the build on real drives.
