This implements a first generation of Windows CI testing. Presently, this only runs valuable, hand-picked tests which have been known to work in the past, and whose failure would indicate a critical problem. A test which isn't passing doesn't mean that the feature being tested is not working. For example, the 'create' test fails ostentatiously, though the 'meteor create' command certainly works in practice. This points to problems some compatibility problems with the 'self-test' harness itself, some of which I'm aware of. Though, it likely will highlight some legitimate problems which Windows users experience too. There are a number of additional tests which should be enabled which likely pass already, and many more which are failing and we should fix. Additional tests can be added to the scripts/windows/appveyor/test.ps1 file as they've been deemed working. Altogether, this will take extensive work to achieve the same level of coverage our Unix test suite enjoy, but we've got to start somewhere! cc @benjamn
