Description
This pull request contains changes to simplify the example used in the CMake generation step for Windows.
As the minimum CMake version is set to 3.12, the -S and -A platform and folder arguments are available, so the only variable left is the generator itself. Ommiting the other text removes the noise between CMake versions and makes the example easier to read.
I tested up to VS 2026 and the Vulkan Samples solution is created as expected, although with VS 2026 the solution file has the .slnx extension.
