If you do that, should also remove upgradecheck from .cirrus.yaml, which
currently runs the upgradecheck target.

I suspect this'll cause windows CI a bit slower.

An alternative to your patch to have the buildfarm client avoid calling
upgradecheck if tap tests are disabled.  Under your patch, upgrade check is a
NOP, so it should stop calling upgradecheck anyway.  So maybe this is a better
option ?
