add install parameter

[reaseno]

It would be nice to be able to add parameters like --overwrite manually:

winget install Microsoft.VisualStudioCode --override '/SILENT /mergetasks="!runcode,addcontextmenufiles,addcontextmenufolders"'

more:
winget install --help

And it would also be nice to be able to save them for updates.

Difficult but i'll take this in account

#123 seems related

For Chocolatey:

Example:
choco install virtualbox --params "/NoDesktopShortcut /ExtensionPack"

To find out about parameters you can look at the description: https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/virtualbox#description

An option will be provided to be able to pass parameters to the choco/winget executable:

chocolatey has an option to remember the packages parameters when updating, but for some reason it is not turned on by default (see chocolatey/choco#797). To enable it run choco feature enable -n useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades. I am not sure if Winget has something similar, but it is pretty handy not having to delete desktop icons when updates. I don't think it is an essential thing for WingetUI to add though. If someone knows a way to do the same with Winget, please tell me

Edit: someone explained why that Chocolatey feature is not enabled by default ( because of open issues), so it doesn't really make sense to implement it on WingetUI
