WoA: Update Visual Studio to 17.11.2 and disable restore points

This new tier-1 template has an updated MSVC (1941) and other small
optimizations done to Windows 11:
- .NET runtime optimization service is ran so it wont start
  automatically in later VMs.
- Event viewer showed that Windows creates Restore Points during
  provisioning so this is now disabled.
- Widgets are now disabled, so they no longer download weather/news
  data.
