Automated testing on Windows via Appveyor #1612

Description

@greg-1-anderson

Windows is not tested under CI, and it seems that Windows-related Drush questions do not get good support, either in this queue or on Stack Exchange. This situation has gone on for years.

Roman Paska claims that Drush on Windows is mostly functional, although we still need a little more information about which shells work, what versions of Drush folks are using, etc.

I think that if we could set up CI for Windows Drush, and had a volunteer to do that, and if we had a number of people who could post here and say, "My name is ____, I use Drush on Windows regularly, and I have subscribed to the #drush tag on Drupal Stack Exchange, and will answer Drush on Windows questions there", well, then we'd have a supported platform, and there would be no question about that remaining.

I am somewhat dissatisfied with the current "unsupported but happens to work" state of affairs, though, and would prefer to firmly be in one camp (supported) or the other (support removed).
