Summary:                    Add hlsl compiler support to Visual Studio 2012
Description: 
Adding *.hlsl files to a Visual Studio 2012 project should activate the HLSL
compiler for those files.  We should also be able to specify the Shader Type of
each hlsl file.

Currently, the hlsl files are added like the following in the project:

<ItemGroup>
  <None Include="..\shaders\simplePS.hlsl" />
  <None Include="..\shaders\simpleVS.hlsl" />
</ItemGroup>

They need to be added like so:

<ItemGroup>
  <FxCompile Include="..\shaders\simplePS.hlsl" />
  <FxCompile Include="..\shaders\simpleVS.hlsl" />
</ItemGroup>

And ideally, we could specify the type of shader from the following choices:
Effect, Vertex, Pixel, Geometry, Hull, Domain, Compute, Texture.
This would create the following:

<FxCompile Include="..\shaders\simplePS.hlsl">
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='RelWithDebInfo|x64'">Pixel</ShaderType>
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Debug|x64'">Pixel</ShaderType>
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Release|x64'">Pixel</ShaderType>
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='MinSizeRel|x64'">Pixel</ShaderType>
</FxCompile>
<FxCompile Include="..\shaders\simpleVS.hlsl">
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='RelWithDebInfo|x64'">Vertex</ShaderType>
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Debug|x64'">Vertex</ShaderType>
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Release|x64'">Vertex</ShaderType>
  <ShaderType
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='MinSizeRel|x64'">Vertex</ShaderType>
</FxCompile>


Steps to Reproduce: 
Just create a Win32 executable project with Visual Studio 2012 and add an
test.hlsl file to it.
