Remove support for Visual Studio 2013

Browse Source 
No members of the buildfarm are using this version of Visual Studio,
resulting in all the code cleaned up here as being mostly dead, and
VS2017 is the oldest version still supported.

More versions could be cut, but the gain would be minimal, while
removing only VS2013 has the advantage to remove from the core code all
the dependencies on the value defined by _MSC_VER, where compatibility
tweaks have accumulated across the years mostly around locales and
strtof(), so that's a nice isolated cleanup.

Note that this commit additionally allows a revert of 3154e16.  The
versions of Visual Studio now supported range from 2015 to 2022.
