## Title

    Reproduction request: After /upgrade, copilot --version reports 1.0.91 but winget list and the Uninstall registry entry still show v1.0.89, an

## Body

    What I found:
    On a winget install of GitHub.Copilot, using Copilot CLI /upgrade can leave copilot --version at 1.0.91 while winget list and HKCU Uninstall DisplayVersion remain v1.0.89 and winget still offers v1.0.91 as available.
    After that /upgrade, WinGet\Links\copilot.exe reportedly has no LinkType (not a symlink) and ProductVersion 1.0.91 while the WinGet\Packages package-folder copilot.exe stays at 1.0.89.
    
    Evidence:
    https://github.com/github/copilot-cli/issues/5071
    
    Still unknown:
    Whether Copilot CLI releases after 1.0.91 detect winget-managed installs and refuse or redirect /upgrade.
    
    Useful next check:
    Whether Copilot CLI releases after 1.0.91 detect winget-managed installs and refuse or redirect /upgrade.
