Description
**Feature request:**
* Add features to `choco list`:
* Show the installed apps with their dependencies (maybe as a tree?)
* Sort the output list by installed date, last updated
* Check which arguments were used to install an app
* Show exact installed apps - only apps I actively installed (without dependencies). Useful for saving the list of my installed apps.
I believe it would be very useful 😄

Research direction
Start at the `choco list` command entry point and review how installed packages and their metadata are currently presented. Consult the synchronized ClickUp task for scope, then define acceptance checks for dependency display, date sorting, install arguments, and distinguishing explicitly installed packages; done requires those behaviors to be specified and verified.
