Support for App Clips in unlisted and custom apps

App Clips serve a useful purpose, a temporary or temporal mini app experience. I'd like to see this come to both unlisted and custom apps.

Unlisted, easier argument. Same as public, just not searchable on the store. You need a link for an unlisted app ...... or an app clip code!!!

For custom apps, a few use cases might be an internal conference that is short lived, or brief support sessions via a support app. The argument falls down for enterprise owned devices because why not just install everything you'd ever need--but for employee owned devices they can still enroll into an MDM, and we wouldn't want every single app available to be there. An app clip could be provisioned as eligible for that user / device and only there on-demand.

Similar to https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/832043 which was asking for just unlisted.
