Closes #310

Given that I don't know which versions and tools are "portable", that is, installable basically anywhere, I've just set up Visual Studio Code environment variable: DiffEngine_VisualStudioCode for windows.

If you want more variables already set in this PR just tell me for which OS and diff tools -> var name.

Maybe there are some editors that can't be installed somewhere else than their default location for which this kind of option is not helpful, and given that I don't know if this is the case for the other editors I'm waiting your opinion
