Hi team,

It seems that when searching for a given package, the packages API might return a duplicate key for "UpdatedAt" property.

Reproduce (pwsh):

$apiURL = "https://api.winget.run/v2/packages"

$app = "Microsoft.VisualStudioCode"
$searchQuery = "?query=$app&Ensurecontains=true&sample=1"

$results = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "$apiURL$searchQuery" -Method Get
ConvertFrom-Json $results

Error: ConvertFrom-Json : Cannot convert the JSON string because a dictionary that was converted from the string contains the duplicated keys 'UpdatedAt' and 'updatedAt'

Returned value from API:

    {

    }
  ],
  "Total": 2
}

Would it be possible to ensure the results do not contain duplicate keys? Or is this an issue with the package, "Microsoft.VisualStudioCode" rather than the API?

Thanks for your help!

Kind regards,
Fabian
