Description of the new feature / enhancement

Often I may have application's in use (long term or brief testing) that have dependencies that I don't want or need as part of my base os - an example is yt-dlp that has Denoland.Deno as a dependency

As such I should be able to install that app as a containerised app so that it cannot interfere with my base os & so that on uninstall I can be sure that there are no lingering smells from the installation of this app

Proposed technical implementation details

winget install yt-dlp --containerised
