Runtime install has missing dependency

[kennykerr]

I tried installing the runtime from here:

https://github.com/microsoft/WindowsAppSDK/releases/tag/v0.8-preview

It works on a dev box but fails on a machine without dev tools installed:

---------------------------
ProjectReunion-0.8Preview-Install-x64.exe - System Error
---------------------------
The code execution cannot proceed because MSVCP140.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.
---------------------------
OK  
---------------------------

I suspect the installer is linked with the VS CRT which isn't installed on the machine. It should be linked with the Hybrid CRT like we did here. I'll throw up a PR. Thanks for the bug!

I bet if you install the VS redistributable the installer will run fine.

@DrusTheAxe @dkbennett Is this still an ongoing issue or can we close?

This is a dupe of the 'Use the Hybrid CRT' issue/plan. The WindowsAppSDK repository (this one) was updated but not all of the WinAppSDK components have yet (including the installer?). I'm working with those components/devs so we expect to be 100% HybridCRT for 1.0 (but given schedules and vacations I don't expect it for 1.0-experimental1).

@dkbennett is the installer updated to play the HybridCRT game yet? If not we should keep this issue open until that's addressed.

@DrusTheAxe is this fixed in 1.0?
