CI/AppVeyor: build deps out-of-tree

appveyor.yml: set cache to an absolute path.

Desperate attempt to get AppVeyor cache to work.

My assumption in a7a56293aa #9852 that that different jobs were
overwriting each other's cache is probably wrong: AppVeyor
docs/discussions hint that the cache is per-config (though I haven't
found a clear, unambiguous statement as such).
