Switch PowerShell invocations from Windows PowerShell (powershell.exe) to PowerShell 7 (pwsh.exe) to reduce flakiness from PowerShell startup crashes.
Changes:
- Update the internal PowerShell command builder to spawn
pwsh.exe. - Update Hyper-V tooling to run scripts using
pwsh.exe.

We've been seeing a lot of test flakiness lately that seems to be coming from powershell itself crashing during startup, not any of our code. Claude seems to think that switching to the newer pwsh should fix it. Let's see what happens.
