Kubelogin incorrectly named in winget/choco

[qjoly]

I just noticed that when installing kubelogin via winget, the binary is named kubelogin (whereas on Mac/Linux, it is named kubectl-oidc_login, corresponding to the formats used for kubectl plugins).

> kubelogin
No configuration found.
You need to set up the OIDC provider, role binding, Kubernetes API server and kubeconfig.
To show the setup instruction:

        kubectl oidc-login setup

See https://github.com/int128/kubelogin for more.
error: login: could not find the current authentication provider: could not find the current auth provider: auth-provider is missing
> kubectl oidc-login setup
error: unknown command "oidc-login" for "kubectl"

It would be preferable to have the same binary name on Windows in order to

• Avoid having a second user in kubeconfig pointing to the kubelogin binary for windows compatibility
• Ensure that the documentation is the same, whether on Windows or not

Like mentioned in this issue #926 (comment)
I have recently added the "kubectl-oidc_login" alias to the winget package, so hopefully that helps your issue regarding winget.

As for choco, I see that this were also added in 2023: chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages#2282
I can confirm that it works for me at least.

Se here for my output:

Although it is added to WinGet, it is not managed from within this repo, as the maintainer is not willing to have this repo manage it: #1433 (comment)
