Give the option to randomize when updates are triggered.

Is your feature request related to a problem?

> Hi,
> We have beed using the winget-autoupdate tool across the company, and it's been good to us... mostly.
> The problem is high traffic peak at the scheduled time when multiple computers load up the internet line.
> at some of our sites it's fine (the lines handle the load), but with others... it's an issue.

> Is there a solution like a lan cache / p2p solution (delivery optimization / branch cache and similar...) or a way to randomize the scheduled time?
