Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Due to the license issue, the commercial UWP app owner may not distribute the WebView2 Runtime as suggested in MSDN

Make a standalone dependency package of WebView2 Runtime, and make it referenceable by an UWP app by declaring it in PackageDependency

<Dependencies>
  <PackageDependency Name="Microsoft.WebView2Runtime.107.0.0.0"
    Publisher="CN=Microsoft Corporation, O=Microsoft Corporation, L=Redmond, S=Washington, C=US"
