Building CLP ver 1.17.6 with MSVS 2019

[hedwards7070]

Dear Sir/Madam

I have tried to build CLP version 1.17.6 using Visual Studio 2019, but failed as shown in the printout below. There are callls to updateTwoColumnsTranspose
but there is not any implemented method.

Furthermore the variable wasMaximization should be a member CoinLpIO.

Is this something that you can take care of, or is there perhaps a mistake made by me somewhere.

I guess you are somehow using the wrong version of CoinUtils, which is releases/2.11.4. In that version, the missing method is defined [here](https://github.com/coin-or/CoinUtils/blob/f709081c9b57cc2dd32579d804b30689ca789982/CoinUtils/src/CoinFactorization.hpp#L626] in CoinUtils releases/2.11.4 and the build went through with Visual Studio 2017 here.
