Research direction

Start by reproducing the generated-template debugger and VS Code project errors on Windows 10 using the versions described. Inspect the generated test2vsc.vcxproj imports and the reported openFrameworksDebug.props and openFrameworksLib.vcxproj paths. Done means the generated project resolves its referenced files and compiles and debugs without these missing-file errors.
