Winget upgrade does not detect the correct version of an installed package

[trebuh]

Brief description of your issue

Winget does not detect that the latest version of Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable (x86) is already installed.

Hence, winget upgrade --all always reinstall it.

Steps to reproduce

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> winget install --id=Microsoft.VCRedist.2015+.x64 -e

Found Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2022 Redistributable (x64) [Microsoft.VCRedist.2015+.x64] Version 14.38.32919.0

Expected behavior
