Add Properties for Azure.Containers.ContainerRegistry.ArtifactManifestProperties

[Nickcandy]

Library name

Azure.Containers.ContainerRegistry

Please describe the feature.

In the previous iteration of our cmdlets, particularly Get-AzContainerRegistryManifest, the output included two properties: MediaType and ConfigMediaType. However, following the update to Track 2 SDK, as per the changes documented in the pull request 24341 , we noticed that these properties have been removed in here. The justification mentioned was a lack of usage by customers.
Given this situation, we find ourselves in a challenging position. As per our internal policy regarding breaking changes, and considering the potential impact on basic user scenarios, it is critical for us to find an appropriate solution. The absence of these properties in the Track 2 client could potentially hinder some fundamental functionalities for our users.
Hence, we request the reintroduction of the MediaType and ConfigMediaType properties in future releases.

Hi @Nickcandy -

Thank you for sharing your requirement!

In the meantime, I have provided a sample showing how you can obtain these values using lower-level APIs available in the Azure.Core library here: Accessing Manifest properties using lower-level Azure.Core APIs. We had previously discussed making a single call at a time - I have updated the gist to include a description of how to access a collection of manifest property values.

We hope this unblocks your scenario while we investigate the feasibility and timeline of adding the convenience APIs you've requested.
