The CI scripts as it is currently does not separate compiling and testing for
non-Windows builds. I don't see a good way to only run a specific set of tests
given a particular environment without re-architecturing the CI pipeline.

Building git and running the test suite is encapsulated in the
'ci/run-build-and-tests.sh' script, while installing dependencies is
encapsulated in 'ci/install-dependencies.sh', just in case Azure
Pipelines Linux images don't contain both Python 2 and 3 (Travis CI
images contain 2.7 and 3.5)  So I don't think it's necessary to touch
'azure-pipelines.yml' or '.travis.yml' at all.

Yes, and this is implemented as a single step as far as the CI
pipeline is concerned. It does not produce a build artifact that can
then be loaded into multiple environments for running tests.

Unless there's a very good reason to _not_ use Azure Pipeline's
built-in Python version selection support, I believe it's more
desirable in the long-run to leverage the feature rather than maintain
some custom solution.
