### Describe the improvement
When searching for a tool on winget, I really don't want to see packages from all my package managers and it clutters the list, so letting me select just winget from the start would improve the experience.
### Describe how this improvement could help users
Only search the sources they want a package from.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing the package search flow and the interface where package-manager sources are selected. Implement source selection before searching so users can choose only the desired source, such as winget, and verify that results exclude unselected package managers.
