This change comes with two improvements:
1) using the VCPKG_DEFAULT_BINARY_CACHE variable drops dependency on
vcpkg default cached archives location, and improves readability
2) two obvious cases when binary cache is invalidated are defined, that
guaranties it won't grow boundlessly when, for example, vcpkg has being
updated.
The VCPKG_TAG variable renamed to CI_VCPKG_TAG to prevent any possible
name clash with vcpkg-specific variables.
The vcpkg_cache script renamed into more meaningful one.

This PR replaces a [link to Qt precompiled binaries](https://github.com/sipsorcery/qt_win_binary/releases) with compile instructions that allow users to self-compile static Qt package which is required for building Bitcoin Core with Visual Studio.

a43b8e9555 build: set OSX_MIN_VERSION to 10.15 (fanquake)
Pull request description:
Taken out of #20744, as splitting up some of the build changes was mentioned [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/22937#discussion_r707303172).
This is required to use `std::filesystem` on macOS, as support for it only landed in the libc++.dylib shipped with 10.15. So if we want to move to using `std::filesystem` for `23.0`, this bump is required.
See also: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode-release-notes/xcode-11-release-notes
> Clang now supports the C++17 \<filesystem\> library for iOS 13, macOS 10.15, watchOS 6, and tvOS 13.
macOS 10.15 was released in October 2019. macOS OS's seem to have a life of about 3 years, so it's possible that 10.14 will become officially unsupported by the end of 2021 and prior to the release of 23.0.

f78cc90524 ci: Fix merge_script in MSVC task (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
The new `merge_script` in the MSVC build task does not really exit early when the task is triggered by a non-pr.
In the current code e4aa9b15b9/.cirrus.yml (L104)
the `exit 0` command exits from the PowerShell call, not the recent `merge_script`. This cause the next lines e4aa9b15b9/.cirrus.yml (L105-L107) are executed unconditionally.
Here is an excerpt from [CI task log](https://api.cirrus-ci.com/v1/task/4578647416766464/logs/merge.log) for the ["Merge #22915: Remove confusing CAddrDB " commit](896649996b):

This change allows users to not patch `common.qt.init.vcxproj` to fit
their Qt and Visual Studio versions. Also it simplifies code base
maintaining.

5a9e255e5a ci: Run fuzzer task for the master branch only (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/22629#issuecomment-896454270:
> I think we need to decide whether running the fuzzer CI in any branch other than master is something we want to be doing / maintaining. This seems pretty unsustainable unless we at least make changes in regards to the fuzz inputs being used by the different branches. I'm pretty sure Marco has mentioned this before.
This PR makes CI ignore fuzz tests by forcing `RUN_FUZZ_TESTS=false` for all cases when it is not the master branch or a PR based on it.
See #22731 as a demo for the 22.x branch.
