[v2,02/23] Vcproj.pm: list git.exe first to be startup project

Visual Studio takes the first listed application/library as the default
startup project [1].

Detect the 'git' project and place it at the head of the project list,
rather than at the tail.

Export the apps list before libs list for both the projects and global
structures of the .sln file.

    "In the solution file, there are a list of pseudo-XML "Project"
    entries. It turns out that whatever is the first one ends up as
    the Startup Project, unless it’s overridden in the suo file. Argh.
    I just rearranged the order in the file and it’s good."

    "just moving the pseudo-xml isn't enough. You also have to move the
    group of entries in the "GlobalSection(ProjectConfigurationPlatforms)
    = postSolution" group that has the GUID of the project you moved to
    the top. So there are two places to move lines."
