This addresses C extension build errors related to an undefined _hypot
symbol when building with the Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python
2.7 [1] or MinGWPy [2]. It also addresses errors when building a C++
extension with MinGWPy and C++11 from cmath, 'error "::hypot' has not
been declared'

The Windows build now depends on Python 3.6 to fetch externals, but it
will be downloaded via NuGet (which is downloaded via PowerShell) if it
is not available via `py -3.6`. This means the only thing that must be
installed on a modern Windows box to do a full build of CPython with all
extensions is Visual Studio.
Cherry-picked from 51599e2bdd, parts of 40a23e8899, parts of 68d663cf85, d5cd21d75a, and possibly others that I've missed.
Also:
* Rename db -> bsddb for disambiguity
* Update sqlite3 to 3.14.2.0 since it's the version we use on 3.x, and it's simpler to just use it than to also upload the old version to cpython-source-deps
* Add PCbuild/*.ilk to .gitignore
* Silence warnings caused by duplicated defines from Modules\expat\winconfig.h
* Add WIN32 define to VS9.0 project files to match MSBuild project files.
* bpo-30368: Update build_ssl.py to restore Perl-less building
OpenSSL 1.0.2 releases changed how files are copied in the makefile,
thus causing Perl to be required even for Python's "prepared" OpenSSL.
Now build_ssl.py does the requisite copies before running nmake.
* bpo-30368: Update build_ssl.py to use prepared OpenSSL
* Updates SSL-linking projects to use the new include{suffix} directory
* build_ssl.py now only copies those files not handled by prepare_ssl.py
* * bpo-30368: Update build_ssl.py to use prepared OpenSSL
* Update SSL-linking projects to use the new include{suffix} directory
* Move comment to following line
This changes the main documentation, doc strings, source code comments, and a
couple error messages in the test suite. In some cases the word was removed
to fix the grammar.
The old project files move to PC/VS9.0 and remain supported.
VS2008 is still required to build 2.7; VS2010 (or later, plus Windows SDK 7.1)
is *also* required to use the new project files.
When ``None`` was passed as a ``REG_BINARY`` value to SetValueEx,
PyMem_DEL was called on an uninitialized buffer. Patch by John Ehresman.
(Also an incidental typo fix in a comment in test_winreg)
requires them. Disable executable bits and shebang lines in test and
benchmark files in order to prevent using a random system python, and in
source files of modules which don't provide command line interface.
