Skip CSRI helper library in linking to VSFilter

Description

There isn't really any reason to access VSFilter through the CSRI helper library as we do currently. The primary issue here is providing a solution for people who don't want to build VSFilter themselves, as it is a bit tricky.

The primary issue solved by doing this is ensuring that the correct version of VSFilter is always loaded and that it is always loaded.

Turns out that this doesn't actually require any changes to the source or project files, only to the builder's set-up.

I'll write something about it on the wiki later.

This is somewhat documented on [Build/Windows] now.
The next Windows installer will be updated to ship for this configuration.
