The workload for C/C++ development in VS Build Tools 2019 installer is called Desktop development with C++.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/workload-component-id-vs-build-tools?view=vs-2019#desktop-development-with-c

The old name is probably from the previous release.

A small update that might help avoid confusion.

@ainrd Thanks for the update. It looks like names have changed in both the current and previous versions, so I called that out.
