.... Do we know how to force the store to install an update for us? StoreContext.RequestDownloadAndInstallStorePackageUpdatesAsync presumably? Can we even locally test if that works?

If you mean without user confirmation (silently) this could help according to docs: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/packaging/self-install-package-updates#download-and-install-package-updates-silently
But why didn't you only opening the updates page in store? And what happened if stire isn't available/removed?
I must remove the old bits from TP

Meh. I think we can do that in a follow-up.

Meh. I think we can do that in a follow-up. I also think we should disable the "Install Update" button, and fast-follow with the follow up that does this. (I'm bumping this, so that we can put it in the next selfhost, so that we can test if it works with the next-next selfhost. ) |

Okay, I like it again. Thanks for carrying this over the finish line @zadjii-msft
This PR adds support to the About Dialog for checking the store to see if there's a new version of the Terminal package available. We'll only do this once per day, per terminal window.
In dev mode, we'll always fake it and say there's an update to
x.y.zavailable.This also involved pulling all of the About dialog code out into its own class. All that is goodness.
We don't currently provide a button for installing the update. We just check. Incremental progress is better than none.
