Make Installer Existing-Installed-Version-Location-Aware #34154

Description

Description of the new feature / enhancement

When you install PT, and you already have an existing installation in place, the installer should lookup the existing installed path. It should then show that path in the installer dialog, and perhaps inquire if you wish to upgrade that install.

Scenario when this would be used?

Every installation of the application.

Supporting information

I have a current installation of PT v80.1.0 located in D:\Program Files\Utilities\PowerToys. I just started the installer for the current v83.0 build (x64, machine wide), and it gave the default installation location vs my existing location.
