Remove the no-op AppVeyor with_win_header job

The with_win_header matrix entry patched Windows.h into
single_include/nlohmann/json.hpp before building, but JSON_MultipleHeaders
has defaulted to ON since #3532 (2022-06), so CMakeLists.txt points the
tests at include/ and the patched single header is never compiled. The
job has been a no-op VS2015 build since then.

Windows.h coverage already exists through tests/src/unit-windows_h.cpp
(#3631), which runs in every MSVC job. Delete the dead matrix entry and
its before_build steps, and cite unit-windows_h.cpp from the QA page.

Part of #5715
