CI(windows): per-user Python install + robust python.exe path lookup

The installer's InstallAllUsers=1 needs admin (runner service isn't elevated) so Python landed in the per-user LOCALAPPDATA dir, not C:\Program Files; the hardcoded PATH prepend missed it -> 'python not recognized'. Switch to a per-user install and locate python.exe across the known dirs.
