Windows package manager, related: #238

I don't know much about the package manager but it seems to be heavily used by Windows users (or at least dev types). This ticket will explore and hopefully execute submission for ease of installation of WAIL for Windows in the future.

See https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/wiki/CreatePackages.

More scoop package manager for Windows

If you've built software that you'd like others to use, Scoop is an alternative to building an installer (e.g. MSI or InnoSetup) — you just need to zip your program and provide a JSON manifest that describes how to install it.
