Summary of the new feature / enhancement

Good morning

it's great to have many PowerShell users - it's a great 'tool', thanks a lot for your great work!

… but it's very annoying, that all those PowerShell users get this notification:

   A new PowerShell stable release is available: …
   Upgrade now, or check out the release page at:
   https://aka.ms/PowerShell-Release?tag=…

The problem is, that most Users will start this process:

  1. "A new release? - great!"
  2. But: "How can I upgrade PowerShell??"
  3. "… ok, I'll upgrade it anytime later, I don't have time to ask google"

Therefore: please tell how PowerShell can be upgraded in the upgrade notification!

Something like this:

   A new PowerShell stable release is available: …
   Start upgrade by calling: …
   The Release Notes: https://aka.ms/PowerShell-Release?tag=…

Thanks a lot, kind regards,
Thomas
