Update Azure Pipelines script

- Add an MSBuild response file with basic build options.
- Don't restore or build in subsequent dotnet invocations.
- Use 'windows-latest' as it has been updated to 'windows-2022'.
- Remove Install NuGet and NBGV install tasks as it is now built-in.
- Point the 'VSTestResultsDirectory' to the new output directory 'BuildDir'.
