While the -latest alias is no longer used in Core workflows (see Changeset-59720), GitHub has begun rolling out a change to their MacOS runner images that tags the macos-15 as macos-latest instead of macos-14.

Similarly, the windows-latest alias will be updated to point to windows-2025 in during the month of September.

This changes the workflows running on MacOS and Windows images to use the versions that will now be considered the "latest" versions.

Trac ticket: Core-63170.
