Update GitVersion and build pipeline configurations

Updated `build.yml` to use GitVersion actions `v4.2.0` and `actions/checkout@v4` with `fetch-depth: 0` for full Git history. Configured `GitVersion.yml` with custom commit message patterns for version bumps, enabled `commit-message-incrementing`, and added `update-build-number: true`. Adjusted `assembly-informational-format` and refined `master` branch settings for versioning.
