This PR updates the CI pipelines to use VS2022 instead of VS2019 as that is the latest supported VS toolchain on edk2. Continuous-integration-options: PatchCheck.ignore-multi-package Signed-off-by: Oliver Smith-Denny <osde@microsoft.com>

	Overview
EmulatorPkg provides an environment where a UEFI environment can be emulated under an environment where a full UEFI compatible environment is not possible. (For example, running under an OS where an OS process hosts the UEFI emulation environment.)

How to Build & Run
You can use the following command to build.
- 
32bit emulator in Windows:
build -p EmulatorPkg\EmulatorPkg.dsc -t VS2022 -a IA32 - 
64bit emulator in Windows:
build -p EmulatorPkg\EmulatorPkg.dsc -t VS2022 -a X64 - 
32bit emulator in Linux:
build -p EmulatorPkg\EmulatorPkg.dsc -t GCC5 -a IA32 - 
64bit emulator in Linux:
build -p EmulatorPkg\EmulatorPkg.dsc -t GCC5 -a X64 
You can start/run the emulator using the following command:
- 
32bit emulator in Windows:
cd Build\EmulatorIA32\DEBUG_VS2022\IA32\ && WinHost.exe - 
64bit emulator in Windows:
cd Build\EmulatorX64\DEBUG_VS2022\X64\ && WinHost.exe - 
32bit emulator in Linux:
cd Build/EmulatorIA32/DEBUG_GCC5/IA32/ && ./Host - 
64bit emulator in Linux:
cd Build/EmulatorX64/DEBUG_GCC5/X64/ && ./Host 
On posix-like environment with the bash shell you can use EmulatorPkg/build.sh to simplify building and running emulator.
For example, to build + run:
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh run
The build architecture will match your host machine's architecture.
On X64 host machines, you can build + run IA32 mode as well:
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh -a IA32
$ EmulatorPkg/build.sh -a IA32 run
