Need a better error message when C++ is not installed for building Windows il2cpp apps

1. What happened
I've tried to build a Windows standalonoe il2cpp app and got a huge error message that left me clueless in regards to what went wrong. The issue was missing C++ installation locally.

Need to have a proper error message. Even better - we might want to install C++ together with IL2CPP support.

2. How we can reproduce it using the example you attached
- Have machine with only default VS2017 installed (the one that goes with Unity)
- Try building Windows IL2CPP app
>>> it fails with unclear error
Expected: a user-friendly message that clearly tells him what went wrong and how he can fix that.
