Publish winget / MSI installer

[floh96]

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Please consider publishing sudo as an msi installer.

Scenario when this would be used?

Currently, Sudo is published through windows, and therefore it is taking months before non insider users are getting an update.

We're working this out presently. Especially once the code is here on GitHub, there's no reason we can't just have a zip release here, so we may as well publish to winget too.

Would this also mean that win10 users could benefit from this?
I have several reasons as to why I'd rather not upgrade to win11 at the time and my computer at work also is locked to win10. But this would significantly help me in scenarios like this: microsoft/winget-cli#2999 (comment)
Thanks!

alternatively, open source the sudo code?

@Kreijstal I mean, yea, that's the plan 😉

You can download Sudo from here, it doesn't have an installer yet, but I'm working on it.

Okay I definitely get that it's valuable - but I'm gonna go ahead and delete links to 3p builds of sudo. Sorry, I just think it's a terrible idea to have folks downloading builds from potentially untrusted third parties. Seems like a recipe for a supply chain vulnerability.

I'm back from vacation this week. Getting officially signed installers up on our releases page and winget is my priority this month.
