The DIA SDK wasn't automatically detected after #160354, because `if($Env{VSINSTALLDIR})` would be evaluated as [`if(<string>)`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/if.html#string) after expansion. This always evaluates to false unless it's one of the true constants like `1` or `ON`. In turn the DIA SDK was never automatically detected.
The current 23.1.0 RC builds are also built without it even though the SDK should be available (e.g. `llvm-pdbutil diadump <pdb>` fails).
The fix is to use [`if(DEFINED ENV{<name>})`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/if.html#defined).
