Research direction

Start with the existing manifest for Amazon.AWSVPNClient in the winget-pkgs repository and compare it with the 6.2.1 release linked in the issue. Update the manifest to point to the new version and installer, then validate it with the repository’s manifest validation process. Done when the updated manifest passes validation and records version 6.2.1.
