Test whether or not using clang for premerge testing on Windows will improve performance.

This is only a draft PR. It shows (finally!) how we can get Windows tests to build & use clang-cl (with sccache).

I think you said there was a better/faster alternate way of getting clang-cl.exe into the container, so I doubt that this is what we actually want to commit. Let me know how you think we should proceed from here.

We should definitely build this into the container. That would be done by adding a step in .github/workflows/containers/github-action-ci-windows/Dockerfile. That lets us pay the installation cost once and a minimal unpacking cost (that we should be able to optimize away eventually) on every run.
