Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
It isn't reasonable in some cases to prebuild VM images with az cli installed. In those cases, when its needed an install must be on par if not better than installing terraform.
I have a github action that has these numbers;
```
Install/Upgrade AZ CLI 4m 56s
CONTAINER_NAME: intake
Run Start-Process msiexec.exe -Wait -ArgumentList '/I azure-cli-2.3.1.msi /quiet'
Start-Process msiexec.exe -Wait -ArgumentList '/I azure-cli-2.3.1.msi /quiet'
shell: C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\pwsh.EXE -command ". '{0}'"
```
This is just the install as I had the installer checked in to my github repo.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
A az cli install must be in the seconds range. (10-30 seconds). Frankly this should be a fast as a file copy.
