projects: drop MSVC project files for recent versions

Browse source 
We encourage users to generate visual studio project files using CMake.

We keep project files in git for ancient visual studio versions that
cmake cannot generate files for, but we no longer ship the project files
in the tarballs.

==============================
This document describes how to compile, build and install curl and libcurl
from sources using an IDE based development tool such as Visual Studio.
from sources using legacy versions of Visual Studio 2010 - 2013.
Project files are available for several different Visual C++ versions. The
following directory structure has been used to cater for this:
You will need to generate the project files before using them. Please run
"generate -help" for usage details.
To generate project files for recent versions of Visual Studio instead, use
cmake. Refer to INSTALL-CMAKE in the docs directory.

- VC14.10 (Visual Studio 2017 Version 15.0)
- VC14.30 (Visual Studio 2022 Version 17.0)
Separate solutions are provided for both libcurl and the curl command line
tool as well as a solution that includes both projects. libcurl.sln, curl.sln
and curl-all.sln, respectively. We recommend using curl-all.sln to build both
projects.
For example, if you are using Visual Studio 2022 then you should be able to
use `VC14.30\curl-all.sln` to build curl and libcurl.
For example, if you are using Visual Studio 2010 then you should be able to
use `VC10\curl-all.sln` to build curl and libcurl.

bugs in the project files that need correcting, and would like to submit
