[misc] drop ARM32 builds 
* Per https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/10981 and plenty of other similar
  reports, GitHub Actions can no longer compile ARM32 binaries by default using the
  latest Visual Studio toolchain, due to Microsoft current Windows SDK having dropped
  the ARM32 toolchain (per https://github.com/zufuliu/notepad4/issues/839).
* Well, I have better things to do then try to maintain platforms in the process of
  being deprecated, so I'll let the people who care about Rufus on ARM32 propose a
  non-intrusive workaround that can work with current GitHub Actions.
