NativeScript Appium Android Emulation tests fail when Visual Studio Community installed #198

Environment
Provide version numbers for the following components (information can be retrieved by running tns info in your project folder or by inspecting the package.json of the project:

• CLI: ~7.1.0
• Cross-platform modules:
• Android Runtime:28
• iOS Runtime:
• Plugin(s):Nativescript? Angular?

Describe the bug
When you create a new demo project (I used the tabs one in Angular), then install appium tests and attempt to run them, you get a crash:
TypeError: Cannot read property 'sdk' of undefined

To Reproduce
Install Visual Studio Community
Install the Android_Accelerated_Oreo avd image. It has a invalid format for target in the Android_Accelerated_Oreo.ini file.
Install NativeScript
Create Angular Tabs example project
Install nativescript-dev-appium npm package to devDependencies
Run tests with npm run e2e

Expected behavior
Tests run

Sample project
Raised an issue on NativeScript/mobile-devices-controller#10 where the crash is raised

Additional context
If you delete the AVD that Microsoft Visual Studio creates stuff goes back to normal.
