Please check if the PR fulfills these requirements

  • What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Bug fix

  • What is the current behavior?

The windows-2016 runner is used for the Windows job used to build and test the application in the "build" GitHub Actions workflow. That runner has now been removed by GitHub. This causes the workflow runs to fail.

  • What is the new behavior?

Previously, the windows-2016 runner was used for the Windows job used to build and test the application in the build GitHub Actions workflow. That runner has now been removed by GitHub. In its place, we will use the runner with the oldest version of Windows that is now available as a GitHub-hosted runner: windows-2019.

The reason for using the oldest available Windows version is to provide compatibility with the widest possible range of Windows versions for the users of the Arduino Language Server.
