Description

Unfortunately Travis does not support Windows https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/2104. There is a suggestion to use Appveyor.
There are PRs attached both for Avatica and Calcite (i tried to make similar to travis.yml)
The only different Java option for Calcite is

-Djna.nosys=true

which is required to overcome https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/issues/384 while Appveyor build.
Also unfortunately there is no option to have parallel build even between projects (at least for free accounts) => to speed up the process I use only java8
+ in case of Calcite do not use cache as Appveyor fails to save because of the size - I guess it is also free account limitation

P.S. it should be noted that to have successful build on Appveyor CALCITE-2409 should be fixed.
