Feature idea

As an IDEasy user, I want to have the ability to install Git via IDEasy.
Then I could first install IDEasy and notice that it requires Git in order to work.
So I can simply do ide install git to fix the problem.

Additional context

When this story is implemented, we can create a follow up story that if IDEasy detects that git or git-bash was not found, it could automatically trigger the installation of Git.
