glab installation through winget does not add glab as recognized executable (#913 on github)

On a fresh install of Windows 11, installing glab via winget, the command glab does not get added to the PATH and trying to run glab after install will get you a:

glab : The term 'glab' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. At line:1 char:1

+ glab
+ ~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (glab:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

Adding the glab folder to the PATH manually solves this problem.
