Run action on Windows.

Additional context

This worked fine yesterday for ros-tooling/action-ros-ci#749, but it was installing cppcheck 2.7

  cppcheck v2.7 [Approved]
  cppcheck package files install completed. Performing other installation steps.

    from 'https://github.com/danmar/cppcheck/releases/download/2.7/cppcheck-2.7-x64-Setup.msi'

It's now trying to install cppcheck 2.8 and failing:

  cppcheck v2.8 [Approved]

Exit code 3010 seems to mean that the system should be rebooted:

  Packages requiring reboot:
   - cppcheck (exit code 3010)
  
  The recent package changes indicate a reboot is necessary.
   Please reboot at your earliest convenience.

Not sure why it's now happening with version 2.8, but we could probably pin cppcheck to 2.7.

ci.ros2.org seems to install cppcheck version 1.90: https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/ros2-cookbooks/blob/de9d4cc159f2c4402e4636c458ad4bc535d0610d/cookbooks/ros2_windows/recipes/chocolatey_installs.rb#L11

This is also the version I have on my Ubuntu 20.04 system, so we could pin to that.
