> "Replicating AppVeyor Builds" needs the following changes: [https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/cpp/windows.html#replicating-appveyor-builds]
>  * The recommended VM does not include the C++ compiler - we should link to the build tools and describe which of them needs installation
>  * Boost: the b2 script now requires --with not -with flags
>  * The batch script were renamed (appveyor-cpp-build/appveyor-cpp-setup)
>  * Prefer JOB=Build_Debug as otherwise it forces clcache
>  * BOOST_INCLUDEDIR must be set to C:\Boost\include\boost_VERSION
>  * Use conda manually to install gtest gflags ninja rapidjson grpc-cpp protobuf
> Even with this:
>  * The developer prompt can't find cl.exe (the compiler). (You must restart the VM!)
>  * The PowerShell prompt can't use conda (it complains a config file isn't signed)
>  Solution: run a PowerShell instance as administrator and run "Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted"
