VS needs to massage project name in VS2019 solution

[Marcel]

If the project name contains a dot or a bunch of other special characters, VS needs to replace them with an underscore when calling msbuild [-target argument].  This call will otherwise fail:

Code: [Select]

msbuild C:\vs2019stuff\Project.Library\library.sln /t:Project.Library /p:Configuration=Debug "/p:Platform=Any CPU" /nologo /v:m

Should become

Code: [Select]

msbuild C:\vs2019stuff\Project.Library\library.sln /t:Project_Library /p:Configuration=Debug "/p:Platform=Any CPU" /nologo /v:m
