[jdk8u-dev] RFR: 8358538: Update GHA Windows runner to 2025

Backport of [JDK-8358538](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8358538) from JDK11 that uses the new `windows-2025` GHA runner, that is replacing the old `windows-2019` GHA runner since 2025-06-30. The backport is not clean, since the GHA configuration is completely different from JDK11.

JDK8 still builds with Visual Studio 2017, so there's no need to backport [JDK-8360042](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8360042), nor to change any other setting.

Build should be clean, but for the `jdk_security_infra` test failures, that are well known to fail in JDK8 (as they should in JDK11), and are unrelated.
