UpdateServicesServer unable to handle duplicate product name values

[rileysea]

Details of the scenario you tried and the problem that is occurring

Loading new products into an array under "UpdateServicesServer" DSC resource has failed due to WSUS now containing multiple product titles with the same name.

Verbose logs showing the problem

ERROR - An error occurred running method 'Set' in resource 'UpdateServicesServer' for resourceID '[UpdateServicesServer]UpdateServices': System.Management.Automation.MethodException: Cannot find an overload for "GetUpdateCategory" and the argument count: "1".

Suggested solution to the issue

Modify this code block to handle product names with the same title Code Reference

The DSC configuration that is used to reproduce the issue (as detailed as possible)

Not sharing the DSC configuration, since it's an array of products. But here is the example of multiple products returned from the $AllWsusProducts = $WsusServer.GetUpdateCategories() line that is pulling duplicate product titles.

This seems to be the same issue as in #61

I still got this error in 1.2.1.
