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
* bpo-30871: Add test.pythoninfo (#3075)
* Add Lib/test/pythoninfo.py: script collecting various informations
about Python to help debugging test failures.
* regrtest: remove sys.hash_info and sys.flags from header.
* Travis CI, Appveyor: run pythoninfo before tests
(cherry picked from commit b907abc885)
* bpo-30871: pythoninfo: add expat and _decimal (#3121)
* bpo-30871: pythoninfo: add expat and _decimal
* Remove _decimal.__version__
The string is hardcoded, not really interesting.
(cherry picked from commit f6ebd838f0)
* bpo-30871: Add "make pythoninfo" (#3120)
(cherry picked from commit a3a01a2fce)
* bpo-30871: pythoninfo: more sys, os, time data (#3130)

PythonInfo now converts types other than intger to string by default.
* fix typo
(cherry picked from commit ad7eaed543)
* bpo-31231: Fix pythoninfo in Travis config (#3134)
bpo-31231, bpo-30871: Replace "./python -m test.pythoninfo" with
"make pythoninfo", since macOS uses ./python.exe.
