Sorry to revive a recently closed PR.

@per1234 Would the Arduino team be interested in having a github action workflow based on winget-releaser (based on Komac) to push every new Arduino CLI github-release to the winget package registry? It is the official windows package manager, comes pre-installed with every windows >= 11 fresh install, does make a lot of sense.

Note, in the meantime, I've created a cron running every night via a github action that pushes new arduino CLI releases to winget registry as soon as they are detected, so the discrepancy should be removed. Note it would still be preferable to have the core arduino team officially support publishing the package, especially given how straightforward it is with the below github action.

Uses winget-releaser Requires a Classic Github Personal Access Token with public_repo scope is created, following this link, then the Token can be added to the repo as a secret named WINGET_ACC_TOKEN. See below, that user also will have to fork the winget-pkgs repository.

Notes:
You will need to create a classic Personal Access Token (PAT) with public_repo scope. New fine-grained PATs aren't supported by the action. Review #172 for information.
Fork microsoft/winget-pkgs under the same account/organization as the project's repository. If you are forking winget-pkgs on a different account (e.g. bot/personal account), you can use the fork-user input to specify the username of the account where the fork is present.
