ci, dockefile: frozen version of CMake

[mabrarov]

Changes (excluding #10230):

• ci: frozen version of CMake to avoid issues with third-party library CMake projects not compatible with CMake 4.0 (Downgrade CMake to 3.31 actions/runner-images#11926) - refer to es_out: support Upstream Servers with configuration overriding #7608 (comment).
• ci: ensuring CMake version is not greater than the latest supported one for unit tests on s390x and riscv64.
• dockerfile: rework of Windows Containers Dockerfile for build cache friendliness and configurability, exact and configurable version of CMake in images for Windows containers.
• dockerfile: ensuring CMake version is not greater than the latest supported one for Linux containers.

This PR fixes #10157 for CI and Dockerfiles.

Solution used:

1. Downgrade CMake to 3.31 actions/runner-images#11926 (comment)
2. Downgrade CMake to 3.31 actions/runner-images#11926 (comment)

Tested CI changes on #7608 (cherry-picked this PR commits and #10180 commits on top of #7608).

It looks like jwlawson/actions-setup-cmake GitHub action doesn't support Linux aarch64 yet - refer to jwlawson/actions-setup-cmake#74 - so for GitHub Linux aarch64 builds (until jwlawson/actions-setup-cmake#74 is completed and released) this PR downloads and uses official CMake build from https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/releases. Unfortunately, the same solution cannot be applied to s390x and riscv64 CI builds and to images for Linux containers due to not all platforms required for these cases are represented among official CMake builds, so for:

• s390x and riscv64 CI builds
• Linux images built from dockerfiles/Dockerfile

this PR just ensures that version of CMake (installed from Ubuntu repository) is not greater than the latest supported (is < 4.0).

See also CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM (CMake 4+ only).

Please note that building of Windows Containers images in this PR fails because of #10158, i.e. it is existing (in master branch) issue. Refer to #10180 for the fix which is based on (includes) this PR.

Update: version of CMake was downgraded in Ubuntu GitHub actions runners - refer to actions/runner-images#11933 - which means that the issue this pull request (#10178) fixes should be already fixed since 4/12/2025. IMHO, this pull request providing explicit and configurable version of CMake is still helpful. It also makes possible to test different versions of CMake if needed.

Update: since 04/20/2025 this pull request is based on #10230, because otherwise this pull request fails to build.

• [N/A] Debug log output from testing the change
• [N/A] Attached Valgrind output that shows no leaks or memory corruption was found
• Run local packaging test showing all targets (including any new ones) build.
  Only x86_64 builds (refer to modified packaging/build-config.json) were tested using packaging/local-build-all.sh script. Log of script is available at flb_packaging_local-build-all.log.
• [N/A] Set ok-package-test label to test for all targets (requires maintainer to do).

We probably need to fix up the docker files as well.

Thanks for this, can you link it to the relevant issue too?
