Get ghcup into Microsoft Store?

E.g. python appears to be there: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/python-39/9p7qfqmjrfp7

The main question is how to ensure msys2 is installed when shipping via MS store, because it requires MSIX installer and that probably doesn't go well with our current powershell script installing msys2. Additionally, msys2 is mutable and cannot be cleanly uninstalled.

So, questions are:

  1. how to deal with msys2
  2. what exactly should be installed? Just the ghcup binary?
  3. how will uninstallation work? Will it just remove the ghcup binary?
