Description

This PR is due to @xGuTeK's PR here: #31

I learned that if we set the scope to current user when installing powershell modules, there is no need for admin rights.
This means we can automate certain steps that beginners often struggle with and also to get started quickly with the project.

The main ko project config script will set the execution policy to bypass, so less users should struggle now with some of these steps.

Also improve the check for MSSQL installation, to first check if it is even installed before checking for SQL Instances.

Note that users often struggle with this step, since it either fails to
them due to missing admin rights or not following steps properly.
Therefore and to ease the initial process, we can install these modules
without admin permissions if we install it to the current user scope.
That way in the initial run it will install them automatically so we can
reduce the steps from the readme.
