Reasons: * These projectfiles are still 32-bit, whereas all other builds for all other OSes are now 64-bit. * Relatedly, these projectfiles are dependent on the libraries kept at the aquileia/external repository. * VS2019 is still listed as supporting Windows 7, so there is a minimal likelihood of developers not being able to use VS2019. * The VS2019 projectfiles instead use vcpkg to get the required dependencies, which is easier to setup than the aquileia/external prebuilt libraries. * It's one less thing that needs to be updated whenever source files are added/moved/removed. * It's two fewer jobs that Travis needs to run, which means Travis builds will finish more quickly.
