Brief description of tool

We use Az PowerShell module as part of our CI/CD pipeline for performance testing.

However, because our desired version of Az is not present in windows-latest, we have to add a step to install it. This process can take upwards of 50 minutes: https://github.com/microsoft/netperf/actions/runs/8727656983/job/23948162545

It would be great if windows-latest came with Az module version 11.5.0
