Improves Winget search performance by streaming results

Refactors the package search logic to process results as a stream instead of collecting them all in memory first.

This change uses the PowerShell pipeline to transform search results on the fly. This significantly reduces memory usage and improves responsiveness, especially for queries that return a large number of packages.
