CI: quiet the Windows post-test process cleanup

After ctest runs, the Windows cleanup fires taskkill for each residual process
that could hold SSH or file handles open. taskkill prints an "ERROR:" line
whenever a process is absent or cannot be terminated, so every job ended with a
run of confusing "ERROR: Access denied" lines that look like a failure but are
just normal cleanup.

Discard the taskkill output and print a single line announcing the cleanup, so
the log stays clear about what is happening. The set of processes killed is
unchanged.
