Comment (by desrosj):

 In [changeset:"49810" 49810]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="49810"
 Build/Test Tools: Remove the Appveyor configuration file.

 Appveyor was added to Core in [44594] to ensure that NPM and the WordPress
 build tools continue to work correctly on Windows systems as changes are
 made. Using an additional service for this was required at the time,
 TravisCI did not support testing on Windows.

 [49162] introduced a GitHub Action workflow that performed the same
 testing. Since all automated testing is moving to GitHub Actions, using
 Appveyor is no longer necessary, and it’s preferable to have all automated
 testing in one location as much as possible.

 Props ayeshrajans.
 Merges [49779] to the 5.5 branch.
 See #51968.
