 ClassicPress, a fork of WordPress, uses GitHub actions for automated CI
 testing in a similar way to WordPress.

 The runner images for Ubuntu has recently been updated to `24.04` for
 `latest` and we have noticed that the slimmed down OS runner image has
 introduced issues in many of the image tests in core.

 This PR may add some more context:
 https://github.com/ClassicPress/ClassicPress/pull/1749

 We have as yet not managed to find a solution beyond maintaining the OS
 runner at Ubuntu `22.04`.

 We have noted however the a large number of the image tests in WordPress
 are being skipped in automated testing for what seems to be the same
 reason. It seems that around 37 tests related to Imagick are being skipped
 and some GD tests are being skipped for heic and avif image types.

 The only solution that works currently seems to be fixing the runner to
 `Ubuntu 22.04`
