This commit adds a 'verbose' flag to vcbuild.bat that turns on outputs
useful for build debugging, including MSBuild BinLogging and
DEBUG_HELPER logging.

It also adds a 'setlocal' call so internal environment variables no
longer leak out to the calling shell.

Checklist
  • make -j4 test (UNIX), or vcbuild test (Windows) passes
  • commit message follows commit guidelines

Hello @jkunkee
and welcome. Thank you for your contribution 🥇
If you are not familiar with our review and landing process, it's covered in CONTRIBUTING.md

I like the idea behind the proposed change, but I think we can do it with a simpler, more generic way 🤷‍♂️.

P.S. If you have any questions you can also feel free to contact me directly.

CI: https://ci.nodejs.org/view/All/job/node-test-pull-request/20750/ ❌ (arm-fanned)
Resumed: https://ci.nodejs.org/view/All/job/node-test-pull-request/20765/ ✔️

@refack does your request for changes still hold?

This change adds a 'msbuild_arg' option to vcbuild.bat that can be used
to pass arbitrary flags to MSBuild.

It also adds a 'binlog' flag as a shortcut 'msbuild_arg' option to
enable binary logging to `%config%\node.binlog`. This is especially
convenient when debugging changes to the build system.

In the process of developing this change, the idea of adding 'setlocal'
to the beginning of the script was rejected since other scripts in this
repo rely on the exported environment variables. This change adds a
note describing this.
