LLVM is the largest package that we get from servo-build-deps, so
installing it via chocolatey should reduce the amount of data that we
transfer from that source. In addition, it's one less dependency that we
have to manage.
It also seems that installing LLVM to the default location with choco
means that we no longer have to set the LIBCLANG_PATH environment
variable for bindgen.

- Add a chocolatey configuration that installs all dependencies and split
the instructions into a normal and manual installation section. In
addition fix a warning print statement for the Windows build that would
trigger a Python exception.
- Simplify the build instructions in the README and move all manual
setup details to: https://github.com/servo/servo/wiki/Building
Currently fonts are using incorrect metrics and the app uses the console
subsystem. This patch adds aliases so that font metrics are found and
instructs the linker to use the windows subsystem.
