### Is Your Feature Request Related To A Problem? Please describe.

_No response_

### Describe The Solution. Why is it needed?

I have a package where the archive directory names I'd like to extract are different between the 32 bit and 64 bit versions. A separate -SpecificFolder parameter for 64 bit would be great to have in cases like this.

Research direction

Start by locating the Install-ChocolateyZipPackage implementation and its existing -SpecificFolder handling. Trace how 32-bit and 64-bit archive paths are selected, then verify that a separate 64-bit folder parameter works for packages whose archive directory names differ.
