msvc: VS2026: unlock picky warning in cmake, test in CI

Upgrade a GHA/windows job to VS2026 (from VS2022), using a runner image
released a week ago. It also comes with the same Windows SDK as VS2022:
v10.0.26100.0.

The runner image uses Windows 2025 unfortunately, which makes the job
run significantly slower than before this patch:
- configure: 49s -> 1m10s
- build: 3s -> 5s
- install test prereqs: 23s -> 27s
- run tests: 3m18s -> 4m11s
- build examples: 15s -> 25s

It's a shame.

Also:
- cmake: enable picky warnings for VS2026 internal version 19.50.
  Build is clean with existing options.
- GHA/windows: make the built-in OpenSSH intall path recognize
  the windows-2025-vs2026 image as windows-2025.
- windows-2025-vs2026 is able to load the cached stunnel made on
  the windows-2022 runner.
- disk use of the build is almost identical to VS2022.
