Description

Description of the new feature / enhancement

I want to be able to specify a minimum version.
I can specify a maximum version, but not a minimum version.

This assumes if both a minimum and maximum version are specified, they don't create an impossible version to install.

Research direction

The issue names the WinGetPackage DSC Resource but no files, tests, or entry points. First locate that resource and its existing maximum-version handling and tests; the work is complete when a minimum version can be specified, validated alongside a maximum version, and covered by tests.
