Add plugin sync via pac plugin push#324

Conversation
Extends the dvdt.linker.xml schema with a <Plugins> section and adds two right-click commands on .csproj files: Link to Existing Dataverse Plugin and Push Plugin to Dataverse. Link presents a merged quick-pick of unmanaged PluginAssembly and PluginPackage records (package-backed assemblies filtered out via _packageid_value eq null) and stores the chosen record's id, name, type, project path, and env URL in the linker. Push reads the entry, runs a pac auth pre-flight (installed + profile-for-env), and spawns pac plugin push with output piped to a dedicated OutputChannel and a progress notification.

All linker file methods would be good to move into single utility helper class instead duplicating the code.

Summary
Adds plugin sync to DVDT — a parallel workflow to web resource sync, but for Dataverse plugin assemblies and packages. Lets developers link a local
.csprojto an existing PluginAssembly/PluginPackage record and push changes viapac plugin pushdirectly from VS Code, without leaving the editor.What's new
.csprojfiles: Link to Existing Dataverse Plugin and Push Plugin to Dataverse.dvdt.linker.xmlschema gains a<Plugins>section (sibling to<WebResources>/<Settings>), with one<Plugin>element per linked project storingId,dvName,type(Assembly/Nuget),localProjectPath, andenvironment.Design choices worth highlighting
pac plugin pushrather than re-implementing plugin registration.typeattribute discriminator — matches howpac plugin push --type Nuget|Assemblyitself models the choice.environmentis stored per entry. This lets push run without requiring an active DVDT connection — pac handles its own auth.Test plan
