How to use latest XP toolset v141_xp?

Which image are you using?

Looks like Windows XP support is pre-installed only in windows-2019, while for windows-2022 (= windows-latest) you need to install the Visual Studio component manually, like here: https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/6067#issuecomment-1213069040

The interwebs are also warning that you might need to get ahold of the old C++ runtime libs that still have Windows XP support.
