Allow setting the VS Code build target

For the NPM package (and tests, at least for now), we will still use
linux-x64, but this is going to allow using the platform build targets
for our standalone releases so we can avoid having to copy all the
packaging steps (like cleaning up modules).

This does mean that the NPM package when installed will be missing those
cleanup steps.  Possibly we can try to break out the packaging step into
a something that can be ran standalone (which will also require
installing dev dependencies like gulp) but not sure how much work this
would be.
