Pull request overview
Updates the release documentation to provide an end-to-end, more operationally complete release and publishing procedure for the VS Code extension.
Changes:
- Expands the release guide with prerequisites and a numbered release flow (version bump, changelog, release PR, signed tag).
- Documents how tag pushes trigger the publish workflow and how to validate the published extension.
- Adds guidance for dry-run publishing, local VSIX builds, and rotating publishing tokens.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
