`multipass launch 24.04` and `multipass launch noble` no longer work on Windows (multipass 1.13.1 and 1.14.0 RC1) #3553

To Reproduce

Two different users, on two different continents, have independently confirmed this:

C:\Users\abcd>multipass launch noble
launch failed: 'noble' is not a supported alias. Please use `multipass find` for supported image aliases.

C:\Users\abcd>multipass launch 24.04
launch failed: '24.04' is not a supported alias. Please use `multipass find` for supported image aliases.

C:\Users\abcd>multipass version
multipass   1.13.1+win
multipassd  1.13.1+win

Conversely, multipass launch lts and multipass launch both still work to launch an Ubuntu 24.04 VM (instance), if folks need an interim workaround.

Above report clarified! FYI Multipass instructions (pasted in above) say to use multipass find which provides erroneous info:

C:\Users\abcd>multipass find

FYI the exact same problem occurs with Multipass 1.14.0 RC1 on Windows:

C:\Users\abcd>multipass version
multipass   1.14.0-rc1.2439+g95e4d16a3.win
multipassd  1.14.0-rc1.2439+g95e4d16a3.win

@holta Thanks for reporting this. https://github.com/canonical/multipass/issues/3519 reported the exact same issue and it has been fixed already. It just did not go into multipass 1.14.0-rc yet. We are going to release 1.14.0 shortly and the fix will be included.

Thanks @georgeliao!

@holta Yes, likely in July.
