* bpo-30726: PCbuild _elementtree: remove duplicate defines (#2348)
bpo-30726, bpo-29591: libexpat 2.2.1 of Modules/expat/ now uses
a winconfig.h configuration file which already defines:
* XML_NS
* XML_DTD
* BYTEORDER=1234
* XML_CONTEXT_BYTES=1024
* HAVE_MEMMOVE
Remove these defines from PCbuild/_elementtree.vcxproj to prevent
compiler warnings.

* bpo-30726: Fix elementtree warnings on Windows due to expat upgrade (#2319)
* bpo-30726: Fix elementtree warnings on Windows
Caused by usage of `getenv` which should be safe. And a few integer
truncations which should also be ok.
* bpo-30726: Don't ignore libexpat warnings which haypo intends to fix upstream
(cherry picked from commit 87c6555073)
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.
Also fixes an outdated note about _lzma in PCbuild/readme.txt
