Description
I just saw an issue opened by a maintainer (cc @dra27) at winget-pkgs: microsoft/winget-pkgs#192924. Thought it would be a good idea to suggest adding an action to do this automatically on every new version released
This PR proposes to add a GitHub action for submitting the latest stable release to WinGet as it gets published. microsoft/winget-create is used as the tool for submitting the latest package.
