Remove inaccurate Windows benchmark numbers
CoreMark on Windows isn't properly using processor groups resulting in scores that are lower than expected on any VM with more than 64 vCPUs. This check in removes those scores since they are inaccurate and misleading.

Windows numbers were computed by running CoreMark on Windows Server 2019. CoreMark was configured with the number of threads set to the number of virtual CPUs, and concurrency set to `PThreads`. The target number of iterations was adjusted based on expected performance to provide a runtime of at least 20 seconds (typically much longer). The final score represents the number of iterations completed divided by the number of seconds it took to run the test. Each test was run at least seven times on each VM. Test run dates shown above. Tests run on multiple VMs across Azure public regions the VM was supported in on the date run.
