Research direction

Start by reviewing the two related pull requests, https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/pull/8747 and https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/pull/8403, along with the continuous-integration repository's Windows CI configuration. Determine how VC 2015 is currently tested, then verify that CI can test VC 2017 and VC 2019 and that the relevant jobs pass.
