Brad King 15e211df80 Help: Suggest using -A to specify platform for VS generators
We already suggest `-T` for the toolset.  Create a dedicated section for
platform selection and suggest `-A`.  Provide examples.

Visual Studio 9 2008
--------------------
Generates Visual Studio 9 2008 project files.
Platform Selection
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` variable may be set, perhaps
via the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-A`` option, to specify a target platform
name (architecture). For example:
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -A Win32``
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -A x64``
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -A Itanium``
* ``cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -A <WinCE-SDK>``
(Specify a target platform matching a Windows CE SDK name.)
For compatibility with CMake versions prior to 3.1, one may specify
a target platform name optionally at the end of the generator name.
This is supported only for:
``Visual Studio 9 2008 Win64``
Specify target platform ``x64``.
``Visual Studio 9 2008 IA64``
Specify target platform ``Itanium``.
``Visual Studio 9 2008 <WinCE-SDK>``
Specify target platform matching a Windows CE SDK name.
