RFR: JDK-8076531: Switch default compiler on Windows to VS2013

Hello,

Please review this change which will make the official switch of the 
preferred compiler toolchain on Windows for JDK 9.

Changes are needed in:

* configure, for changing the default when multiple versions are available
* jprt.properties, for picking the right type of machine for Oracle 
internal building
* README-builds.html to make the documentation a little more correct in 
reflecting the current state of the build requirements

Note that README-builds certainly needs a lot more love, but this is not 
the time for correcting the rest of the mess. I'm only updating the 
numbers so that it's no longer blatantly wrong.
