GitHub migration

[StephanTLavavej]

All tasks related to migrating our work from Microsoft-internal systems to GitHub.

Build System

• CMakeLists.txt: build non-Desktop flavors of binaries #161
• CMakeLists.txt: build mixed mode and pure mode flavors of the libraries #162
• Port DLL export validation from MSBuild to CMake. (Or switch to .def.)
• Change the MSVC-internal MSBuild build system to invoke the STL's CMake build system.
• Delete stl/msbuild and celebrate!

Tests

• Finish migrating src/qa/VC/Libs/vcr/tests/cpp/Dev09_171913_tr1_windows_h_macros
  • And resolve Microsoft-internal VSO-936680
• tests: Enable /clr coverage #797
• tests: Enable /clr:pure coverage #798

Documentation

• Write Contribution Guidelines.
• Drop the Roadmap.

Issues

• Finish migrating bugs.
  • As of 2024-05-28: 107 bugs remain.
• Create bugs for vNext overhauls, collecting DevCom/VSO bugs (tagged vclibs-wcfb02) that were closed in the pre-GitHub Team Foundation Version Control vNext era.
• Finish migrating todo.docx to enhancement issues.
