Description

Only selected argument are captured after package install to be used when `useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades`.

https://github.com/chocolatey/choco/blob/develop/src/chocolatey/infrastructure.app/services/ChocolateyPackageService.cs#L522-L571

This list should be documented. I'm thinking perhaps in a help output, but maybe the docs would be better?

Research direction

Read ChocolateyPackageService.cs at lines 522-571 to identify which arguments are captured in the .arguments file and why they are used by useRememberedArgumentsForUpgrades. Review the documentation structure to choose an appropriate location. Done means the complete argument list and its upgrade-use behavior are documented clearly.
