Description
### Please confirm these before moving forward.
- [x] I have searched for my feature proposal and have not found a work-in-progress/duplicate/resolved/discarded issue.
- [x] This proposal is a completely new feature. If you want to suggest an improvement or an enhancement, please use [this template](https://github.com/marticliment/WingetUI/issues/new?assignees=marticliment&labels=enhancement&projects=&template=enhancement-improvement.yml&title=%5BENHANCEMENT%5D+%28Enter+your+description+here%29).
### Describe the new feature
- A per–package manager setting that checks update packages via VirusTotal before installation.
- Once the scan result is displayed, the user can decide whether to proceed with installing the update.
- It should be possible to exclude specific software from this scanning process.
### Describe how this new feature could help users
The security of the user’s system is the highest priority.
In light of the increasing and critical supply chain attacks affecting both closed-source and open-source software, I propose this option to help preventing a compromise of the user's system.
