win10debloat.ps1:

  • Closes #229, the normal winget installation method does not work for LTSC and Server versions of Windows due to the lack of both Windows Package Manager and the VCLibs dependency. The current fix implements the method shown at Installation Guide for LTSC (and Server OS) microsoft/winget-cli#1956 which installs everything using Add-AppxProvisionedPackage.
  • No changes are made to the current winget installation method, this just adds an alternative method that is only used when on an LTSC/Server version of Windows.

Much of this was previously in my pull request #285 but there were issues with the diff creating confusion that caused it to be closed. So I'm redoing everything and putting them all into separate pull requests to increase clarity on exactly what has changed.
