Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments

• Added _SILENCE_STDEXT_ARR_ITERS_DEPRECATION_WARNING as a Preprocessor definition. This is needed because MSVC STL deprecated stdext::checked_array_iterator on <iterator>: Modernize and deprecate (un)checked_array_iterator STL#3818 and spdlog uses it on https://github.com/gabime/spdlog/blob/ff205fd29a4a2f6ebcbecffd149153256d89a671/include/spdlog/fmt/bundled/format.h#L489-L490
• Some .NET code-behind directly references .dll files, which is triggering the 5271 warning (to which no documentation was found by me), so ended up disabling it.
  
• Fixed C++ style errors around uninitialized variables and C-style casts.

Validation Steps Performed

Build local installer using the Visual Studio 17.8.0 Preview 4.0.
Checking if CI still passes on current versions.
