CI(full),CI(release): Python bindings: (#2100)

- Switched to the ubuntu-24.04-arm runner
- Bumped Windows runner to windows-2022 and Visual Studio 17 2022 GENERATORS
- Minor changes about checks in workflow jobs
- Fixed the pagefile job (even though should not be really needed)
- Refreshed the TO BE CHECKED regress tests to either update or remove the skip conditions
- Added a test to check if the created sdist archive is ok
