Add to Cholatey and Scoop

Would be neat if it were added to the extras bucket from Scoop and the Chocolatey repo:

Do they accept repacks?
i know that Chocolatey provide "official" packs for VC++ 14 redist

[Unrepentant-Atheist]

Yes, they do.

I've never created choco packages before but I could try (and would like) to create one, though I'm not sure if Chocolatey would accept it. As rule 7 says, "Don't package software that is already packaged.". There's already a package with all redist: https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/vcredist-all

@nohopestage They do have a package but it caused me multiple issues in the past. The last time it made Origin throw some dll error. Had to remove all vcredist packages that Chocolatey installed and I had to install each package from Microsoft's website. The only way I was able to fix the problem.

Never had an issue with other repacks (such as this), though. So I do feel like the project has a place at Chocolatey. Just not sure how it could be added, implemented over there.

This shouldn't have taken so long, but the repack is now available in both Chocolatey (still in moderation) and Scoop.

choco install vcredist-aio --version 0.60.0
scoop bucket add extras && scoop install vcredist-aio

Chocolatey update:

Since this package and the vcredist-all package are duplicates, this package should be rejected, unless this package provides some functionality that the vcredist-all package does not.

The older vcredist-all package is not as well maintained. If anything, it should be replaced by this one.
