[CI] Adding MSVC build to CI check with Appveyor #12613
Description
Credit to @sipsorcery for his hard work on making bitcoin compile in Visual Studio.
On top of this, he managed to integrate Visual Studio to integration server AppVeyor. (Travis does not support Windows for now as far as I know)
You can see it in action here: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/sipsorcery/bitcoin this is done on top of this PR.
He shared the following config file for the CI:
