ci: Use 7z format for Windows build artifacts

This commit updates the CI workflow to output .7z archives for the
Windows build artifacts.

The 7z format uses the LZMA compression algorithm, which offers
significantly improved data compression ratio.

Note that 7z performs multi-threaded compression by default.

For more details, refer to the issue zephyrproject-rtos/sdk-ng#567.
