Research direction
Start by reading the PowerShell install scripts and locating how global.json and SDK version resolution are handled. Compare the current behavior with the documented rollForward values, including latestPatch, and define completion as selecting the expected compatible SDK version for each supported value; the issue does not name a specific file or test.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Are there any plans to support the rollForward property in global.json?
If I set the version to 8.0.202 and rollForward to latestPatch, I would expect the script to install the (current) latest patch version 8.0.205, but that doesn't happen.
The same with the other values of the rollForward property.
