Another VS/MSVC release, another failing GC test due to new optimisations. The weak hash tests were using a "create a really deep call stack" trick to try and prevent compilers optimising away function calls which would then cause GC objects to be visible on the stack and prevented from being collected.
Other tests were doing similar things and I switched those to have the objects be created on a thread after MSVC could work around that, I've now done the same thing with the weak hash tests to get it passing again.
I've also included a CI fix to make sure for nightly haxe it downloads the test suite for the exact nightly being used as opposed to the latest commit. I would have put this as a separate merge but the CI will fail without it.
