Description

While investigating #133107, it seems that even if I have a suitably-versioned cdb e.g. 10.0.26100.2161 in PATH, compiletest cdb version detection seems to consider that I failed to satisfy

//@ min-cdb-version: 10.0.26100.2161

Research direction

Start by reproducing compiletest's cdb version detection with cdb 10.0.26100.2161 in PATH and the //@ min-cdb-version: 10.0.26100.2161 directive. Trace the compiletest detection path and compare the detected version with the required version. Done means a suitably versioned local cdb satisfies the directive.
