cpprestsdk is EOL #6341

Description

@Trenly

Looks like there is already a fix in the official port: microsoft/vcpkg#51750
Instead of applying our own patch, we could just update the version we use.

    New-PortOverlay cpprestsdk -Version 2.10.19 -PortVersion 5

While looking this up, I learned that cpprestsdk is now delisted from vcpkg (microsoft/vcpkg#52130) because the repo was archived. So maybe we'll have to figure out something else to use at some point.

    Yep, please stop using cpprestsdk. It's not going to receive any fixes, even security fixes, from now on. (I work on the MSVC Libraries team that archived cpprestsdk.)
