self-hosted runners: upgrade to 24h2 #84

The 24h2 version of Windows 11 introduces a new x64 emulation engine: Prism. It promises improved performance, and maybe it'll help resolve some of the mysterious arm64 hangs we've been experiencing...

For testing this, I'd like to kick off 10 pipeline runs of git-artifacts for aarch64 using the existing 23h2 version, and another 10 using the 24h2 version. We've been experiencing some hangs in the code signing process in git-artifacts, and I'm curious if the new emulation engine (Prism) will resolve those issues at all. WDYT?

Given this comment, I would not expect Prism to work around the issue 😞
