FWIW, we could run ARM windows as part of CI. It'd be a bit of scripting work,
as google doesn't yet have readymade VM images with windows for ARM. Right now
the CI VM images for windows are based on top of the google images. Scripting
generation of ARM images would be some one-off work, but after that...
