Description

### Description

Running `winget repair Microsoft.Azure.FunctionsCoreTools` will produced the following:

> Found Azure Functions Core Tools [Microsoft.Azure.FunctionsCoreTools]
> The installer technology in use does not support repair.

This seems odd given that the MSI itself supports repair operations. I'm not sure if there is additional metadata needed or what, but we should ensure we can support this gesture.

Research direction

Start by reproducing `winget repair Microsoft.Azure.FunctionsCoreTools` and compare its behavior with the MSI's supported repair operation. Inspect the package metadata and installer configuration for `Microsoft.Azure.FunctionsCoreTools`; done means the command performs repair instead of reporting that the installer technology does not support it.
