A fair number of packaged apps are available via WinGet but not the Microsoft Store. Add a feature that can search, download, and install WinGet packages either by using WinGet.run's API or the GitHub API on the WinGet package repo.

Good progress has been made: the WinGet package handler is complete. The WinGet package itself supports downloading, but because of the UWP sandbox they can't be installed automatically.

A Win32/full trust component has been implemented, so WinGet installers can be opened automatically. Installers don't run silently yet, but I think it's best to track that in a separate issue.
