Overview

Add support for installing Ryujinx through the Windows Package Manager (winget). This will allow users to easily install, update, and manage Ryujinx alongside other applications on their Windows systems.

Smaller details

This would involve creating and maintaining a manifest file describing Ryujinx for the winget repository. The manifest should include relevant information like the application's name, publisher, version, download URL, dependencies, and installation instructions. This manifest will need to be updated with each new release of Ryujinx.

Nature of request

Why would this feature be useful?

Provides a convenient, command-line based installation method, making it easier for new users to get started with Ryujinx. This is especially beneficial for users familiar with command-line tools.

Enables users to easily update Ryujinx to the latest version through winget's update mechanisms, ensuring they have access to the latest features, bug fixes, and performance improvements.

Integrates Ryujinx into the wider Windows application ecosystem, allowing users to manage it alongside other applications installed via winget.

Increases the visibility of Ryujinx to users searching for Nintendo Switch emulators through winget.
