Description

Per https://github.com/dotnet/sdk/pull/45156#issuecomment-2535468294

The syntax is currently `dotnet new install package::version`. It would be good to change it to `dotnet new install package@version`. We may also want to look to see if there are other instances of :: used as a delimiter where we could change it to @

Thanks @am11 for bringing this up!
