Working on OpenJFX locally on Windows is non-trivial. Cloning the repository and running ".\gradlew build" will almost certainly produce errors stemming from an incorrectly configured environment. Manually configuring the environment so that the build works on Windows is tedious and non-trivial.

To make the process more seamless we introduce a powershell script, "build.ps1" into the ".\tools\scripts" directory that automates the environment config as much as possible. The script uses the chocolatey package manager to install requisite software, and so that is the only piece that must be done manually.

Configuring the environment for building OpenJFX on Windows is something we have to do on Appveyor as well, so we re-use the "build.ps1" script for setting up the Appveyor instance.
