ci: migrate runners to Node.js 24 and bump nrwl/nx-set-shas to v5.0.1

- Bump actions/setup-node node-version from 22 → 24 across all GitHub
  Actions workflows and the run-publish-vr-screenshot composite action.
- Pin nrwl/nx-set-shas to v5.0.1 (afb73a62…); v5 ships a Node 24 runtime
  and resolves the GitHub deprecation warning for Node 20 JS actions.
- Bump UseNode@1 in .devops/templates/tools.yml from 22.x → 24.x, which
  propagates to every azure-pipelines.*.yml that consumes the template.
- Align legacy actions/setup-node@v4 → @v6 in the composite action.
- Update copilot.instructions.md to note CI runs on the current Active
  LTS (Node.js 24) while engines still allow 22 || 24.
