Remove vcpkg.ps1 and evaluate removal of vcpkg-commit.txt after updating its usage in docs

[ahsonkhan]

There are no users of the vcpkg.ps1 script:

azure-sdk-for-c/eng/scripts/vcpkg.ps1

Line 1 in 070162c

[CmdletBinding()]

Furthermore, other than the getting started docs, no one is referencing vcpkg-commit.txt. It is useful to keep to make documenting easier and having a single place to update the baseline we point to. We should make use of that in the AzureVcpkg.cmake module and vcpkg.json file (for the baseline), OR remove it.

We should ideally use this string in one place. Having it in a single text file makes it easier to read for users and automation (as opposed to extracting it from a cmake file). I vote we have the cmake script read it from a file if it's easy enough to do.

[ahsonkhan]

Reading it from a file within cmake is doable (https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/file.html), but the issue is with updating that same string within the "builtin-baseline" property within the vcpkg.json file.

As an aside, the C++ SDK repo doesn't have the vcpkg-commit.txt file, how does it extract the SHA to check-out?
