[*] Drop MSVC support

Browse source 
To keep this PR description as short as possible, I will save the
ranting about MSVC for the blog post. In short: MSVC has been nothing
but a complete and utter slog to maintain for the *entire* existence of
Eden. CI is an absolute nightmare, it requires *completely* different
compile flags and definitions, has several sets of hacks dedicated to
getting its codegen to cooperate, is a horror story with respect to
dependency management, and is now completely broken and can't launch
games anymore.

Microsoft, you have long overstayed your welcome. And you're not getting
it back ever again. Good riddance.
