winget hangs prompting for approval of source agreement terms in PowerShell 7.4.0-preview.6 #3742

Description

Brief description of your issue

(follow-up to PowerShell/PowerShell#20452)

When winget needs to prompt for approval of the source license terms, it hangs when run under PowerShell 7.4.0-preview.6 running on Windows 11 10.0.22621.2361.amd64fre.ni_release.220506-1250 within Windows Terminal Preview 1.19.2309.25002.

This works fine under PowerShell 7.3.7.

PS> winget list smartm
The `msstore` source requires that you view the following agreements before using.
Terms of Transaction: https://aka.ms/microsoft-store-terms-of-transaction
The source requires the current machine's 2-letter geographic region to be sent to the backend service to function properly (ex. "US").

Do you agree to all the source agreements terms?
[Y] Yes  [N] No:

Entering 'Y' at this point does nothing: winget cannot read keyboard input.

Steps to reproduce

Run this Update-WinGetSources.ps1 PowerShell script:

#requires -RunAsAdministrator

winget source reset --force
$msix = Join-Path -Path $env:TEMP -ChildPath 'source.msix'
Invoke-WebRequest https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix -OutFile $msix
Add-AppXPackage -Path $msix
Remove-Item -Path $msix
winget source update

Then invoke winget list smartm.

At the prompt, type Y

Expected behavior

PS> winget list smartm

Terms of Transaction: https://aka.ms/microsoft-store-terms-of-transaction
The source requires the current machine's 2-letter geographic region to be sent to the backend service to function properly (ex. "US").

Do you agree to all the source agreements terms?
[Y] Yes  [N] No: Y

Actual behavior

The `msstore` source requires that you view the following agreements before using.
Terms of Transaction: https://aka.ms/microsoft-store-terms-of-transaction
The source requires the current machine's 2-letter geographic region to be sent to the backend service to function properly (ex. "US").
