Move UI tests to Windows 11 (#1866)

Calculator's UI tests currently run on Server 2022 VM images. However, the production app is primarily developed for Windows 11. This change moves the UI test jobs to run on Windows 11, so we can run our tests in an environment that's closer to what real users will experience.
