37eccbcd33 Update 3 (of Visual Studio 2017) is leftover from 2015 (#12372)
does not apply to 2017
it's not clear to me that it's possible to download a non current version of vs2017
but if a specific version is required the directions should explain how to get it

5337d8c23f Ignore native module tests on Windows debug build
This resolves #2558. There are no more errors when running test.py on
the debug build in Windows. When running the release build the tests
will be executed as usual.

5a8f60fe32 Update build-instructions-windows
The build instructions mistakenly said that you can find `atom.exe` under `out\D` instead of `electron.exe`. I fixed that and mentioned that the release build will be to `out\R`.

de441916d6 Add a comment to build instructions about cpplint
I added a mention of `cpplint.py` in the build instructions.
The reason, is because it's easy to miss it's existence. Even if you
noticed it's mentioned in `coding-style.md` you might mistakenly think
that `test.py` runs it).
