Install Chef Workstation updates when available

Description

Currently (20.6) when a new Chef Workstation update is available the tray app notifies users and links them to the downloads site in a browser. Instead, we would like the notification to give users the option to update in place. If they select 'yes' the tray application would download the new version of Chef Workstation, and run the installer

Questions

Lets work with the UX team to answer these questions

  1. Would we run the installer in a silent / background mode?
  2. How would we communicate installer failures to the user?
  3. What do we do if the user chooses to not install an available update?
