Changes include:
1. removed csproj and sln validation. not necessary.
2. fixed broken tests commented out in release "3.4.0"
3. moved examples into separate repo [nodejs-msbuild-examples](https://github.com/jhaker/nodejs-msbuild-examples)
Changes include:
1. console.log extracted to allow extension
2. minor formatting - adjustment of line indentations
'12.0': '12.0',
'14.0': '14.0'
Changes include:
1. overrideParams validation has been corrected to support single character parameters
Example: "/m"
2. no longer requires "configuration"
3. no longer requires "publishProfile"
"sourcePath" is required if the "configuration" and "publishProfile" are not defined

- Open "C:\myproject\Properties\PublishProfiles" folder
- Open myproject.pubxml in notepad or notepad++
- Add "user_name"
