In preparation for macOS 27 and to fix existing build errors when Swift 6 (rather than Swift 6.1 is used) to build the project, force use of macOS 26 runners as well as Xcode 26.5 for CI.

Description
Increases the Xcode version requirement for building OBS Studio on macOS to v26.5 and switch GitHub Actions runners to macOS 26.
Motivation and Context
Per the usual release cadence, Xcode versions released around Q2 of the year following a macOS release will require that release to run, which also serves as preparation for the following macOS beta version which will usually be released to developers shortly after that.
To avoid falling too far behind, the project needs to keep up with Xcode updates, particularly as those will also include updates to the build toolchain and compilers used.
Supersedes #13406.
Supersedes #13384.
Note
This does not change the deployment target of OBS Studio itself, which still targets macOS 12.
How Has This Been Tested?
Tested with Xcode 26.5 on current macOS 26, as well as on GitHub Actions runners using
macos-26image on separate fork.Types of changes
