Several packages do not support or provide a silent install experience.

Assuming package manifests identify support for interactive installers, the client should be able to filter these packages so they aren't inadvertently executed for certain scenarios. The client should be able to support a preference for silent install experiences if specified. Additionally the client should be able to filter search results so that packages requiring interactive install can be omitted.

This could be implemented in settings, as well as via command-line arguments.

This feature is required prior to accepting "interactive only" installers into the community repository. Many users are looking for headless/unattended import capabilities.

`Logitech.LGH` has been failing for several months now - might as well remove it if it can't run in unattended mode: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Awingetbot+Logitech+is%3Aclosed+
