Upgrade to support VS2026 and VS2022 at the same time and server

[ignazgebinde]

Hi Team!

I am using the task in my DevOps Server for some time. I wanted to update my Build Server so I can use the new Visual Studio 2026 in parallel with Visual Studio 2022

But the current Version on marketplace (2.0.5) only supports $Version "15.0", "16.0" and "17.0" and "latest". So latest and "17.0" yield 2 version because the compare is

   if ($Version -eq "17.0" -and
            ($instance = Get-VSSetupInstance | Select-VSSetupInstance -Version '[17.0,)') -and
            $instance.installationPath) {
            return $instance.installationPath
        }

a more strict behavior in master/task/ps_modules/utils.psm1 like

    try {
        if ($Version -eq "18.0" -and
            ($instance = Get-VSSetupInstance | Select-VSSetupInstance -Version '[18.0,19.0)') -and
            $instance.installationPath) {
            return $instance.installationPath
        }
        if ($Version -eq "17.0" -and
            ($instance = Get-VSSetupInstance | Select-VSSetupInstance -Version '[17.0,18.0)') -and
            $instance.installationPath) {
            return $instance.installationPath
        }
        if ($Version -eq "16.0" -and
            ($instance = Get-VSSetupInstance | Select-VSSetupInstance -Version '[16.0,17.0)') -and
            $instance.installationPath) {
            return $instance.installationPath
        }
        # Search for a 15.0 Willow instance.
        if ($Version -eq "15.0" -and
            ($instance = Get-VSSetupInstance | Select-VSSetupInstance -Version '[15.0,16.0)') -and
            $instance.installationPath) {
            return $instance.installationPath
        }
    }

would help and support the latest VS2026 Version.

Furthermore please add a Tag in the commit for the next release so matching source code and Deployed Version in Marketplace would be much easy.

Thank you for your help and support.
