Brief description of tool

I would like to use clang-format 18.1.8 with Ubuntu 24.04 runner.

Some additional details can be found here.

Unfortunately this runner already has installed 18.1.3, and recommended solution

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install clang-format-18

doesn't work for me and results with:

clang-format-18 is already the newest version (1:18.1.3-1ubuntu1).

At the same time clang-format 18.1.8 can be successfully installed on 22.04 runner.
