For some unfathomable reason they actually removed this less than a
month ago:

<https://github.com/cirruslabs/docker-images-windows/commit/6777ec66b76747a88f61252f9027f70d23fcc4ce>

I have identified the specific missing component as
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Component.VC.CLI.Support - I will submit a PR to
add it back in.
