Winget package #283

Description of the new feature/enhancement (with images if possible)

I've been using a Chocolatey package to install/update Cascadia Code for a while, but with the advent of Winget it seems like there should be a release there too. I know this is a font and not specifically an executable, but it's still something installable and updatable and it would be nice to be able use the native Windows package manager to do it.

Proposed technical implementation details

Per the winget documentation I believe the only option right now is to execute an installer (exe, msi, msix), but fonts can be pretty easily part of an msix manifest.

There also are a few pending requests to add ps1 and static file installer types, which may be ideal for this once implemented.

It would be nice if this was a winget install option.

With the new release of Cascadia Code with Nerd Fonts integrated, it'd be really sweet to just have the native Cascadia Code release in Winget now.

This still requires microsoft/winget-cli#166 :)
