Subject: [PATCH] [Github] Fix LLVM Project Tests Workflow on Linux (#122221)

This patch fixes the LLVM project tests workflow on Linux. Two changes
were needed. Firstly, some commands need to be performed with sudo now
that the container executes as a non-root user. Second, we needed to
change from `ubuntu-latest` to `ubuntu-22.04` as `ubuntu-latest` not
defaults to `ubuntu-24.04` which causes `setup-python` to install a
python executable linked against a newer version of glibc that is not
found on ubuntu 22.04, which causes failures when CMake cannot execute
the python interpreter that it finds.

(cherry picked from commit a75917679549109fcbf92cb63ef61638517713d6)
