Authenticated package repos

Added

• Optional -User and -Password parameters to Register-ChocoSource (#12) - Thanks @halderex !

Futureproofing

Added

• Futureproofing support for Chocolatey v2.0.0 and higher
• Ability to search remote packages with Find-ChocoPackage via choco search

Changed

• Migrated Get-ChocoPackage from using choco search to choco list to distinguish their changed meaning in Chocolatey v2.0.0 and higher
• Upgraded to PowerShell Crescendo 1.1 Preview 1 for compiling the module
  • No functional changes are expected with this upgrade

Deprecated

• The -LocalOnly switch for Get-ChocoPackage becomes deprecated when used with Chocolatey v2.0.0, due to it becoming redundant with a change to choco list (see chocolatey/choco#158)
• The use of Get-ChocoPackage for package search operations (and it's -Source parameter) becomes immediately deprecated, as Get-ChocoPackage only looks at installed packages beginning with Chocolatey v2.0.0 and higher
  • Package search operations must be migrated to Find-ChocoPackage prior to the release of Chocolatey v2.0.0
