Description of proposed changes

Xref https://github.blog/changelog/2026-05-14-github-actions-upcoming-image-migrations/#windows-2025-visual-studio-2026-image-migration

⚠️ the blogpost mentions:

The windows-latest and windows-2025 labels in GitHub Actions will be migrated to use Visual Studio 2026 by default. This change will be rolled out over a week beginning June 8, 2026 and will complete by June 15, 2026.

If you want to test the new image, update the runs-on: target in your YAML workflow file to the new label windows-2025-vs2026.

Note: This label is meant for testing only. After the migration, this label will point to the windows-2025 image.

So treat this PR as testing the change in advance only, otherwise we need to change it back to windows-2025 after mid-June.

Supersedes #3701
