Allow alternate options for Deploy-WtWin32App to handle changing MSI GUIDs

[andrew-davison]

Zoom for instance seem to be changing their MSI GUID with every release, this means that when we deploy Zoom via Deploy-WTWin32App , and Zoom auto updates to a newer version, Intune will try and reinstall the old version but fail repeatedly, until the latest version is deployed via Deploy-WTWin32App. Issue occurs regularly because Zoom release updates on a pretty regular basis.
It would be good to be able to choose to target the local .exe file path instead. That way we can rely on Zoom to auto update, and we just update the package on a regular cadence to make sure we're deploying a newish version with new builds.

I looked at other discussions mentioning MSI issues, but I think they were at different steps of the process.

1. The whole idea of the UpdateCode of an MSI is that it stays the same for each update. If makes sure that specific app can be detected consistantly.
2. Apps that auto update should not be deployed with Intune, in my opinion.

For apps that either self update or change the UpdateCode guid everytime, I think it is best to follow along #203 which when implemented will just create a script and a detection that uses WinGet. But I hate that feature because of reasons described there. Looking for sponsors to motivate me building a feature I don't like.

That's an interesting take, I initially built scripts to deploy Winget apps locally on machines, but found it very unreliable, so switched to your method of using Winget to build the packages, it's been much more reliable as you have much more control and visibility over the Winget portion of the deployment.
I'm only relying on Intune to deploy the app on first build really, so If it's not a feature you're looking to implement I'll look at updating the Intune detection option from the previous version of the app when it's updated, that way I can change it away from MSI detection once, and the updates versions will just copy this.

There is a new detection script in the repo that uses Winget for detection. And you can even make the version an empty string and it will just use Winget to detect any version.
