Suggested new feature or improvement

Dev Home SDK should support extensions querying winget for package information.

Scenario

Dev home extensions may need access to winget information to make UX decisions. For example, "winget search" could be used to make decisions on which applications should be displayed via the featured applications API. The dev home SDK should support these scenarios so that the winget COM API does not need to be used directly.

Additional details

The WinGet COM API can be used in the extensions directly as a workaround here.
