Description

### Please confirm these before moving forward

- [x] I have searched for my issue and not found a work-in-progress/duplicate/resolved issue.
- [x] I have not been informed if the issue is resolved in a preview version of the winget client.

### Category of the issue

Installation issue.

### Brief description of your issue

Installation of Microsoft.SQLServer.2022.Developer fails on my machine. The output is not very helpful, it seems that something went wrong with the packaging? The cause is that "Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server" is already installed on the system, and for unexpected reasons the SQL Server setup cannot deal with it.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Install "Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server"
2. Run `winget install Microsoft.SQLServer.2022.Developer`

### Actual behavior

```
Microsoft (R) SQL Server Installer
Copyright (c) 2022 Microsoft. All rights reserved.

Operation finished with result: Failure

Oops...

Unable to install SQL Server (setup.exe).

Exit code (Decimal): -2068052310
Error description: An installation package for the product Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'msoledbsql.msi'.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with `winget install Microsoft.SQLServer.2022.Developer` after installing Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server. Inspect the attached Log files.zip and determine whether the package metadata or SQL Server setup causes the missing `msoledbsql.msi` error; done means identifying a confirmed remediation or documenting the required upstream fix.
