feat: Added new cloud-config for Ubuntu 24.04 Proxmox UEFI installation

Added cloud-config settings for network, packages, locale, timezone, SSH configuration, user data, storage configuration, and late commands to enhance the installation process. Updated Packer variables for EFI support in Proxmox Ubuntu and Windows configurations.
