Large Send Offload (LSO) was originally disabled because it caused
deterioration in network throughput but the cause of that deterioration
is now fixed in infra and LSO should be enabled back as it improves
network performance. LSO is enabled in Windows by default.

We don't want Windows VMs to spam mDNS messages about optimizing
Windows updates, when the updates themselves are disabled.

We may read the installed package information from the 'vcpkg list'
command instead of parsing the vcpkg.json. Also instead of using
the jq as a parser, use the cmake script. This allows skipping the
jq installation.

There are two image templates right away: -70 is Windows 11 with no
Visual Studio or Windows SDK ever installed. -71 includes VS2022 17.9.1
(MSVC 14.39.33519) and Windows SDK 10.0.26100.1742
Image changes compared to 23h2:
- VS2019 is left out as it's no longer used in provisioning scripts.
- Old DirectX installation (10-dxsdk.ps1) is left out. It's legacy,
originally used for Windows 7, and newer libraries should be found
from Windows SDK.
- 08-libclang-v100-dyn.ps1 is removed as it's no longer used. It had
dependency to VS2019.
- These images use UEFI instead of BIOS.
