Rather than relying on the Windows SDK that happens to be on the host
machine, we now pull down the Windows SDK from CIPD into
third_party/windows_sdk and use it directly.

cppwinrt relies on a registry entry to determine the SDK location and
doesn't currently support a mechanism for specifying this location
explicitly via an argument. Instead, we do what cppwinrt itself does and
parse out the Platform.XML file to determine the set of .winmd files to
take as input, then pass them to the tool directly.

Canonicalizes input paths we pass to cppwinrt to avoid failures to open
files.

Followup to #448

We now build against a specific Windows SDK rather than whatever happens
to be installed on the host machine.

This also rolls the buildroot to include change
flutter/buildroot#448, which generates the WinRT
headers from the CIPD Windows SDK.

This also rolls an updated version of cppwinrt that includes supports
for long paths.

This also re-enables the UWP builder.
