Subject: [PATCH] fix(ci): pin Windows desktop build runner to windows-2022

windows-latest now ships VS 2026 (v18) which node-gyp doesn't
recognize, breaking electron-rebuild for node-pty. Pin to windows-2022
(VS 2022 / v17) and remove the vswhere GYP_MSVS_OVERRIDE_PATH
workaround that is no longer needed.
