build: refactor vcbuild.bat #12310

Description

@refack
  • Version: master
  • Platform: Windows
  • Subsystem: build

I want to refactor/rewrite vcbuild.bat. The options are:

  1. JScript via cscript
    Pros: Looks like javascript. Built into Windows
    Cons: Might get deprecated. ES3-- syntax.
  2. Powershell
    Pros: Prefered by Microsoft. Fully structured scripting language. OSS and portable
    Cons: New language
  3. Python
    Pros: on par with other tools
    Cons: increases dependency on python as a requirement for building node

Please voice your opinion. We can do a facebook style poll:
🎉 for JScript
👍 for Powershell
😄for python
😕for just tweaking the batch file

Ref: cscript future?
