feat(mssql_server)!: update default image to SQL Server 2025

[saurabh500]

Summary

• Update the default Microsoft SQL Server image from 2022-CU14-ubuntu-22.04 to the pinned 2025-CU8-GDR1-ubuntu-22.04 release.
• Preserve the Ubuntu 22.04 base, Developer edition, authentication settings, EULA opt-in, and readiness conditions.
• Document the new default and the existing ImageExt::with_tag override.

Compatibility

This changes the default SQL Server major version from 2022 to 2025. Applications that need SQL Server 2022 can continue using .with_tag("2022-CU14-ubuntu-22.04").

Validation

• Confirmed the tag and manifest in Microsoft Container Registry: Linux/amd64, Ubuntu 22.04, SQL Server 17.0.4085.5.
• Started the pinned image with the module's default settings, observed both existing readiness messages, authenticated as sa, verified major version 17, and confirmed SELECT 1 + 1 returns 2. Removed the smoke-test container afterward.
• cargo fmt --all -- --check passed, with warnings about nightly-only formatting options.
• cargo +1.95 check --lib --features mssql_server passed.
• cargo +1.95 doc --no-deps --features mssql_server passed, with the existing unrelated with_sa_password link warning.
• cargo +1.95 test --lib --features mssql_server mssql_server::tests -- --nocapture was blocked before test execution by the unrelated rdkafka-sys development dependency: its Windows build could not find the cp executable. The direct container smoke test above passed; the repository's Tiberius integration tests still need to run in Linux CI.

_{A rabbit checks the image tag,
SQL Server hops to twenty-five.
Ubuntu keeps the burrow warm,
While with_tag lets choices thrive.
The module notes the path,
And the carrot build survives.}
