Returns an Excel Package Object for the specified XLSX file
.Description
Import-Excel and Export-Excel open an Excel file, carry out their tasks and close it again.
Sometimes it is necessary to open a file and do other work on it. Open-Excel package allows the file to be opened for these tasks.
It takes a KillExcel switch to make sure Excel is not holding the file open; a password parameter for existing protected files,
and a create switch to set-up a new file if no file already exists.
.Example
$excel = Open-ExcelPackage -path $xlPath
$sheet1 = $excel.Workbook.Worksheets["sheet1"]
