appveyor: Use two parallel compilation on appveyor with CMake

Appveyor provides 2 CPUs for each builder[1], make sure to use parallel
compilation, when running with CMake. CMake learned this new option in
version 3.12[2] and the version provided by appveyor is fresh enough.

Curl doesn't really take that long to build and it is using the slowest
builder available, msbuild, so expect only a moderate improvement in
build times.

Closes #4508
