Thomas Munro off-list mentioned that the Windows CI image is actually running on Server 2022, even though the task name still refers to Server 2019. He also suggested upgrading the compiler from Visual Studio 2019 to Visual Studio 2022.
Some of the tasks for the other operating systems name the version, some don't. We have recently removed the version from the FreeBSD task. Should we remove the versions from the task name everywhere, to avoid having further mismatches?
A PR [1] to upgrade the compiler to VS 2022 is ready in Andres' pg-vm-images repository (where the CI images are built). This VS 2022 image passes all tests for both MinGW [2] and Meson & Ninja [2]. Once it's merged, the CI images will automatically start using the VS 2022 compiler.
Hmm, for the purposes of [0], I think it might be better to keep the image at VS 2019 for now. Unless there are specific reasons why VS 2022 would be of use now?
