[R-pkg-devel] Github action setup for R 4.2.0 on Windows?

[Hiroaki Yutani]

Hi,

I asked about it, but they decided to keep using Rtools40's UCRT
toolchain by default for r-lib/actions/setup-r, until GitHub's default
is switched to Rtools42. To obtain the Rtools42, we need to specify
`rtools-version: '42'`.

Best,
Yutani
