Please support Chinese Pinyin search in PowerToys Run 请支持中文拼音搜索

Description of the new feature / enhancement

I hope that I could search files / apps with Chinese Pinyin.

For example, when I want to search "Notepad" in PowerToys Run, I would like to type "jishiben" instead of "notepad", because the Pinyin of "记事本" ("Notepad" in Chinese) is "jì shì běn".

In the file %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\PowerToys Run\Settings\PowerToysRunSettings.json there is a setting called ShouldUsePinyin, showing that Pinyin search is / was supported in PowerToys. (Or maybe the older version of PowerToys? )

The Wox Launcher supports Pinyin search, so I think it is also possible to add this into Powertoys Run.

希望 PowerToys Run 能够支持拼音搜索。

例如，我想在 PowerToys Run 中启动记事本，我希望输入“jishiben”而不是“notepad”，因为“记事本”的拼音是“jì shì běn”。

在文件 %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\PowerToys\PowerToys Run\Settings\PowerToysRunSettings.json 中有一个名为 ShouldUsePinyin 的条目，说明 PowerToys Run（曾经？）支持拼音搜索。

Wox Launcher 支持拼音搜索，所以我认为这个想法是可行的。

Scenario when this would be used?

When I use PowerToys Run to search files / apps.

当我使用 PowerToys Run 搜索文件 / 应用时。

试试关闭PowerToys，把ShouldUsePinyin设置成true，然后启动PowerToys，此时应该就可以使用拼音了~ 就是在UI上没做拼音的开关，但是json里改了之后就能用的样子
