[RFC] azure: Move to vs2017-win2016 platform build host

[Tom Rini]

Azure is moving to remove the vs2015-win2012r2 platform build host.  The
two suggested new platforms to use are vs2017-win2016 and windows-2019.
For now, move up to vs2017-win2016.

I'm sending this as RFC as it fails to build for i686 but builds for
x86_64 and I'm out of my depth on fixing that.  Can you please take a
look Bin?  Thanks!

Is this build publicly available? I just failed to find it, having no
experience with azure whatsoever...

Good question.  I've had much less luck getting Azure stuff visible and
linked to GitHub than Travis.  But,
https://dev.azure.com/u-boot/u-boot/_build/results?buildId=232&view=logs&j=46ec4386-7228-5f2a-c0d8-953fe6fd5add&t=505270a7-c05a-5eb8-50bd-fd2d6c43911b
is the failure.

I've looked at this issue. It was probably caused by the upstream
MSYS2 Windows binary has not been updated to work with win2016 yet.

I tried this patch today, and the Windows host tools build looks goood. See:

Yes it's publicly available and free service to open source projects.

You need a Microsoft account, and in your github account, search Azure
pipelines from the github marketplace and install it to your github
account.
It will prompt you to the Azure pipeline website and prompt you to log
in using your Microsoft account. Follow the instructions then. Good
luck.

All Azure builds passed

I see this patch was assigned to me on patchwork, I will take this
patch via the x86 tree.
