The Windows build now depends on Python 3.6 to fetch externals, but it will be downloaded via NuGet (which is downloaded via PowerShell) if it is not available via `py -3.6`.  This means the only thing that must be installed on a modern Windows box to do a full build of CPython with all extensions is Visual Studio.

Also fixes an outdated note about _lzma in PCbuild/readme.txt

Cherry-picked from 51599e2, parts of 40a23e8, parts of 68d663c, d5cd21d, and possibly others that I've missed.

Also:

* Rename db -> bsddb for disambiguity

* Update sqlite3 to 3.14.2.0 since it's the version we use on 3.x, and it's simpler to just use it than to also upload the old version to cpython-source-deps

* Add PCbuild/*.ilk to .gitignore
