[New App Request] Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server

New app request to replace the Evergreen version - Evergreen requires the Microsoft fwlink addresses updating in the JSON each time Microsoft release a new version (not really the point of EverGreen), so with NeverGreen we can scrape the webpage and always have the latest version of each "ring" (v18.x & v19.x) This reads the Release notes for the Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server, returns all versions, then refines this list to the latest for each ring before creating language specific URLs for each architecture. Note: ARM64 msi is not available for earlier v18.x builds

N.B. This also makes use of the ReleaseDate Parameter introduced in the [Enhancement] Microsoft SSMS

This is probably the most complex NeverGreen script to date 😉:
