Add powershell command to create dev drive

[soredake]

Suggested new feature or improvement

It would be nice if there is command like Create-DevDrive -Path <path> -Size <size> to create and mount/unmount dev drive from powershell.

Scenario

I like to automate my initial setup, and right now i can't find a way to script creation of dev drive.

Not exactly what you described, but as a step in that direction, there is a -DevDrive switch that was recently added to Format-Volume which might help with what you are trying to do. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/storage/format-volume?view=windowsserver2022-ps#-devdrive

This can be done via a WinGet Configuration file.

The StorageDSC Module supports this functionality, and there is an issue at GitHub:

• DSC_Disk: Add support for creating Dev Drive volume dsccommunity/StorageDsc#276

I've reached out to ask the team to add an example at https://aka.ms/dsc.yaml
