Automatic Installation for Windows

• For Windows, you can install most of the above automatically using Winget:
  • winget configure -f configurations/configuration.dsc.yaml
  • The only thing missing is netcoredbg and html-tidy since they are not available via Winget
  • note - this process may take a lot of time to finish due to Zig. Zig's binaries are highly compressed and it take an unwordly amount of time to uncompress them. This doesn't relate to Winget or to the configuration file, you'll encounter the same experience when running the installer manually.
