Visual Studio 2008 introduced support for the address space layout
randomization (ASLR) feature of Windows Vista. However, upgrading the
VC8 project files to VC9 and above disabled this feature.
Removed the RandomizedBaseAddress directive to enabled the default
setting (/DYNAMICBASE). Note: This doesn't appear to have any negative
impact when compiled and ran on Windows XP.
Visual Studio 2005 and above defaults to disabling the startup banner
for the Compiler, Linker and MIDL tools (with /NOLOGO). As such there
is no need to explicitly set the SuppressStartupBanner directive, as
this is a leftover from the VC7 and VC7.1 projects being upgraded to
VC8 and above.
Defined the DEBUGBUILD pre-processor variable to allow extra logging,
which is particularly useful in debug builds, as we use this and Visual
Studio typically uses _DEBUG.
We could define DEBUBBUILD, in curl_setup.h, when _MSC_VER and _DEBUG is
defined but that would also affect the makefile based builds which we
probably don't want to do.
The curl tool project files for VC8 to VC12 would set this setting to
$(IntDir) which is the Visual Studio default value. To avoid confusion
when viewing settings from within Visual Studio and for consistency
with the libcurl project files removed this setting.

The curl tool project files for VC7 to VC12 would set these settings to
$(IntDir) which is the Visual Studio default value. To avoid confusion
when viewing settings from within Visual Studio and for consistency
with the libcurl project files removed these two settings.
The curl tool project files for VC7 to VC12 would override the default
setting with the output filename being the same as the linker PDB file.
As such the compiler file would be overwritten with the linker file
for all debug builds.
To avoid this overwrite and for consistency with the libcurl project
files, removed the setting to force the default filename to be used.
Carrying on from commit 11025613b9 added VC11 project files which are
capable of supporting side-by-side compilation, 32-bit and 64-bit
builds as well as support for some of the third-party libraries curl
uses.
