Debian 11 LTS will not be supported in the upcoming IoT Edge 1.6 release because it will reach end of life so soon after the IoT Edge release (Debian 11 LTS end of life is Aug 31, 2026). It will, however, continue to be supported in IoT Edge 1.5.

This change updates the main branch to remove support for Debian 11.

It also removes the UseDotNet@2 task from several pipelines. They were added to our pipelines temporarily, before our 1ES-hosted images were updated with .NET 10. Now that the images have been updated, the tasks are no longer needed. Also, the tasks cause problems on our Debian 12 arm32v7 agent (possibly the UseDotNet task doesn't support installing on arm32v7?).

I ran all the pipelines, confirmed they pass, and confirmed that Debian 11 host packages are not produced.

Don't you want to remove it from i-i-s first?

That's something we need to do, but the order doesn't matter.
