[Development] Building with Qt 5.11.1 and Visual Studio 2017

[Tom Isaacson]

We're currently using Qt 5.6 but looking to upgrade soon. I tried building our app on Qt 5.11.1 with Visual Studio 2017 V15.8.2 and it failed on the first file:
1>c:\qt\qt5.11.1\5.11.1\msvc2015\include\qtcore\qalgorithms.h(51): error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int

I searched around and found:
https://forum.qt.io/topic/93714/visual-studio-15-8-0-and-qt-5-11-1-does-not-compile-qrandom-std-aligned_storage
but I've already done a completely clean build. It seems like there are changes being made here:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/236948/2/src/corelib/tools/qalgorithms.h
so should I wait for Qt5.11.2?
