    ci: Use windows VMs instead of windows containers
    
    So far we have used containers for testing windows on cirrus-ci. Unfortunately
    they come with substantial overhead: First, the container images are pulled
    onto the host on-demand. Due to the large size of windows containers, that
    ends up taking nearly 4 minutes. Secondly, IO is slow, leading to CI runs
    taking long.
    
    Thus switch to windows VMs, improving windows CI times by well over 2x.
