This PR changes the CI build scripts to also build LLVM for windows.
**It doesn't build `revive` itself for windows**. This will come in a
follow up. But once we have a LLVM binary release the turn around time
will be much quicker for experimenting with the revive windows build.
I manually uploaded the release those changes produce
[here](https://github.com/paritytech/revive-alex-workflowtest/releases/tag/llvm-18.1.8-revive.22f3ceb).
This enables this PR's CI to find the proper release. This is necessary
because I am also making changes to the folder structure and artifact
naming that the other CI jobs are depending on.

Summary of changes:
- Change `llvm-builder` to use MSVC toolchain on windows
- Fix `llvm-builder` to work with `.exe` files
- Unify the llvm release jobs into a single one. This removed a lot of
copy pasted code and also speeds up the build by giving each their own
runner.
- Use the LLVM target triple to name the binary releases instead of an
ad-hoc naming convention
- Remove the nested folder hierarchy inside the llvm release. Its just
now a single folder `llvm-<target>` that contains the toolchain.
- Give jobs and workflows consistent names
- Replace all runners bei their `*-latest` counterpart
- Only use `parity-large` to build llvm now. All other jobs use github
runners
Pre-eliminary support for LLVM releases and resolc binary releases by streamlining the build process for all supported hosts platforms.
- Introduce the revive-llvm-builder crate with the revive-llvm builder utilty.
- Do not rely on the LLVM dependency in $PATH to decouple the system LLVM installation from the LLVM host dependency.
- Fix the emscripten build by decoupling the host and native LLVM dependencies. Thus allowing a single LLVM emscripten release that can be used on any host platform.
- An example Dockerfile building an alpine container with a fully statically linked resolc ELF binary.
- Remove the Debian builder utilities and workflow.
