`Get-WinGetPackage`'s `-Exact` option doesn't function

[wmmc88]

Brief description of your issue

I'm getting different behavior between winget list -Exact and Get-WinGetPackage -Exact, and it looks like the -Exact option of Get-WinGetPackage is bugged. When -Exact is passed to Get-WinGetPackage, it is always returning nothing.

Steps to reproduce

🪟 Windows 11 Enterprise(10.0.22631) (pwsh) ~
at 08:12:16 PM ❯ winget list --id Microsoft.WindowsTerminal
Name                     Id                                Version      Source

🪟 Windows 11 Enterprise(10.0.22631) (pwsh) ~
at 08:13:20 PM ❯ Get-WinGetPackage -Id Microsoft.WindowsTerminal -Source winget -Exact

Expected behavior

I expected the output of Get-WinGetPackage -Id Microsoft.WindowsTerminal -Source winget -Exact to match winget list --id Microsoft.WindowsTerminal --exact

Actual behavior

Get-WinGetPackage -Id Microsoft.WindowsTerminal -Source winget -Exact returns nothing

It seems like the version of Microsoft.Winget.Client available in this repo, is not the same as what is published to PSGallery.

Get-WinGetPackage doesn't support an -Exact option. Try using -MatchOption Equals instead

Is the updated source available somewhere?
