Now we will pick up the right gstreamer branch + namespace when
building an image, and also the right (matching, if any) cerbero
branch + namespace.
This solves the bootstrapping issue when doing an image update that
requires coordination between gstreamer and cerbero.

We need the Windows 11 SDK for Windows Graphics Capture API support,
which will be enabled at runtime based on feature availability on
Windows, so should work correctly on Windows 8, 8.1, 10, and 11.
However, if we enable it in the VS 2019 installer, it will install
both Windows 10 SDK (required) and Windows 11 SDK (optional), which
will bloat the image by 3GB or more.
So just move to VS 2022 for the Windows images, which requires only
the Windows 11 SDK.
Had to remove the UWP build tools because they were causing the
installation to fail, likely due to an installer bug. We don't need
UWP anymore anyway. We just need the ARM64 build tools for the
cross-arm64 monorepo build.
Also stop installing into C:\BuildTools and let Meson pick the install
up with --vsenv.

Copying the source cache to a running Cerbero CI job on Windows causes
strange / corrupted errors that talk about hard links like:
++ cp -a C:/cerbero/cerbero-sources .
cp: will not create hard link `./cerbero-sources/gstreamer-1.0/subprojects/gst-plugins-good/sys/osxaudio' to directory `./cerbero-sources/cargo-c-0.9.12/cargo-vendor/adler/benches'
[...]
So, delete it. The vendored sources are cached by cargo in its own
cache inside CARGO_HOME, which is build/rust/cargo/ and is preserved
in the image. We won't need to redownload any of this.

Same change was already made in the 1.20 branch:

When starting manually a CI pipeline with MESON_COMMIT variable defined,
install the specified version of Meson. This can be used to help the
Meson project smoke testing RC releases or investigate eventual
regressions.

Fixes CI on coordinated merges when the user has more than 20 branches
in their fork, which will happen very easily since new forks will
always have all the branches of the original remote.

```
- Update the docker image we use, starting using the standard one adding
`gtk4-doc` as required by rust plugins
- Update the plugins_doc_caches as required, some more plugins are built
with the new image
- Install ninja from pip as the version from F31 is too old
- Avoid buildings all GSreamer plugins when building the doc as it takes
time and resources for no good reason
- Stop linking to `GInstanceInitFunc` as it is not present in latest GLib
documentation, leading to warnings in hotdoc.
