Description

**Request:**
Please add support for installing Azurite using [winget](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/), the Windows Package Manager.

**Justification:**
- **Easier installation:** Many developers use Windows and expect to be able to install development tools and emulators using winget, which streamlines onboarding and setup.
- **Consistency:** Other popular developer tools and emulators are available on winget, making Azurite easier to include in scripts, CI setups, and documentation for new contributors.
- **Discoverability:** Listing Azurite in winget will make it more visible to the Windows developer community.
- **Lower friction for new users:** One-line install (e.g., `winget install Azure.Azurite`) removes friction for new users unfamiliar with npm or other package managers.

**Suggested Action:**
- Submit Azurite to the Microsoft Community Package Manifest Repository to make it available via winget.
- Document the winget installation method in the Azurite README.

Thank you for considering this enhancement!
