I think we need to make sure our windows tests get to green... If we make them gating then we will never release, but at the time be motivated to fix them, in order to release.

Maybe they run once every day... to at least start getting an idea of health

For a very long time we’ve had Windows tests in the main pipeline (hidden away,

whether Windows tests fail or even run at all.

Now seems like a good time to review whether to:
a) treat Windows tests as first-class tests and prevent the pipeline from 
proceeding if any test fails on Windows
b) keep as-is
c) change Windows tests to trigger only once a week rather than on every commit, if they 
are going to remain "informational only"

One disadvantage to making Windows tests gating is that they currently take 
much longer to run (around 5 hours, vs 2 hours for Linux tests).
