Implement New Winget Install Method (#1738)
- Removed Get-LatestHash from Install-WinUtilWinget.ps1, replaced by Get-WinUtilWingetLatest.ps1.
- Added new Winget Install method in case of choco failing to install. Environment refresh line included.
- Get-WinUtilWingetPrerequisites added: Downloads the prerequisites required for the latest version of Winget.
- Get-WinUtilWingetLatest added: Uses the GitHub API to find the latest version of Winget and download it along with the accompanied License1.xml file.

Fixes:
- Removed --scope=machine from winget install command in Install-WinUtilProgramWinget. Non-UWP Apps fail to install if scope is set to machine. Error code: 0x80070005. More information commented in file.
