feat: Optimize CI by switching to Ubuntu runners and using PowerShell

[auto-yui-patch]

This pull request introduces two key optimizations to our GitHub Actions workflows to significantly improve performance and reduce execution time.

Changes:

Runner Migration to ubuntu-latest

• All workflow jobs previously running on windows-latest have been migrated to ubuntu-latest.
  • Reasoning: Ubuntu runners generally provide faster startup times and better performance for the types of jobs we are running compared to their Windows counterparts. This change directly translates to quicker CI feedback.

PowerShell for Version Scraping

• The step for scraping versions has been refactored to use a native PowerShell script instead of a Node.js script.
  • Reasoning: This change eliminates the need to set up a Node.js environment (actions/setup-node) for this specific task. By using PowerShell, which is pre-installed on the runners, we save valuable setup time in each workflow run.

Overall, these changes make our CI process more efficient and faster.
