Extension Support through Open-VSX Marketplace for VSCodium, GitPod and more Editors

Hi all,

Just as a short information.
From today on, we are supporting a second extension registry beneath the visual studio code marketplace.

You can now download the latest extension version 0.7.0 from the Open VSX registry.

This registry is used by many VSCode clones like VSCodium or GitPod, who are providing non microsoft (and mostly telemetry free) alternatives to Microsofts original VSCode Editor.

I have not yet added Open VSX to our Release Pipeline, but will soon do so.
At that point Open VSX and Visual Studio Marketplace will get extension updates parallel and automated.
