First "Notes for Cygwin build"
I mentioned WSL build as :

On Windows 10 64bit, one of the efficient method to build GROMACS is to 
use the WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). Information of setting up the WSL 
and building steps of GROMACS on the WSL can be found by search 
engines (e. g. Google). Building GROMACS on Cygwin is sometimes useful 
because binaries can be portable.

I now added MSVC compiled binaries not using icc. 
At this moment I can only use AVX but not AVX2, AVX512.
