Optimize for the minimal flavor

As of git-for-windows/git-sdk-64#87, the
minimal flavor is published as an asset of a rolling GitHub Release.

This strikes a much better balance between generating and using the
artifact; Now, it is generated exactly once when an update is available,
and none of the users have to regenerate it.

The consequence is that no longer does setup-git-for-windows-sdk take
over a minute (uncached) to initialize the minimal Git for Windows SDK
(and only subsequent, cached calls would get to the desirable 2-5 second
range). Instead, the minimal Git for Windows SDK now consistently takes
2-5 seconds to initialize, no caching needed.

Lots of dependency updates & more stringent ci-artifacts query

This version brings tons and tons of updated dependencies, and is a bit
preciser when looking for the latest successful ci-artifacts run lest
it finds an accidentally-pushed topic branch that is not main.

Really work around broken builds with GCC v14.1

A recent MSYS2 update upgraded GCC from v13.* to v14.*, for which Git's
source code is not prepared. v1.10.1 already aimed to work around this,
but only uncovered a long-standing bug preventing that work-around from
working correctly. v1.10.2 fixes that.

Work around broken builds with GCC v14.1

A recent MSYS2 update upgraded GCC from v13.* to v14.*, for which Git's
source code is not prepared. Let's work around that for the time being.

The Action no longer automatically force-enables symbolic link support

By mistake, a dependency of this Action defined
MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict, intending to fix the caching/restoring
but inadvertently causing a change in behavior of all workflows that use
this Action. This was fixed in the dependency, and by upgrading to a
newer version, the setup-for-windows-sdk Action is also fixed.

Add support for Windows/ARM64

With this release, the GitHub Action adds full support for Windows/ARM64. While previously only the full flavor was supported, now the minimal, makepkg-git and build-installers flavors are also supported.

Note: As of time of writing, there is no support for hosted Windows/ARM64 runners, but it is possible to self-host such runners.
