Get SQLite via `winget` on Windows
Login
Microsoft is finally releasing an [official CLI package manager](winget), at last.

Would be nice to easily get the SQLite CLI tools using it.  

From the little I read, the integration looks doable. FWIW.

There are other ecosystems too, of course, like [Chocolatey](choco) and others,  
but with `winget` being bundled by default with Windows soon, and pushed by  
Microsoft itself, would seem natural to support it. My $0.02.

There does not appear to exist a package for SQLite yet:

```
C:\Users\ddevienne> winget search sqlite

While one can get PostgreSQL on Windows that way it seems:

```
C:\Users\ddevienne> winget search postgresql
Name                        Id                         Version       Match
