Brief description of tool

Can I request that both the 'windows-latest' and 'ubuntu-latest' have the .NET workload 'wasm-tools' (used by Blazor Web) installed by default?

I would say for both these images, it would be good if they had the latest .NET sdk (9.0.0 at time of writing) and any .NET workloads (wasm-tools, maui) installed by default so I don't need to run a dotnet workload restore step in my pipeline.

I imagine quite a lot of people are using .NET and Blazor, given they're you're main SDK and web UI framework, it would be good if they get first class support in any pipelines.
