* feat(#1942): VS Code extension — repo-local IDE host with reachability proof

The VS Code extension (vscode/extension.js + vscode/package.json) is a
repo-local, buildable extension (not Marketplace-published). The gsd.invoke
handler dispatches in-process through the GSD command-routing hub. The handler
is exported separately from activate() so it is testable without a VS Code host.

tests/vscode-extension-reachability.test.cjs: proves the handler dispatches
through the hub + returns a result (keystone wired); the manifest declares the
command + engine; resolveEngineRoot finds the gsd-core/ dir.

* docs(changeset): VS Code extension (#1966)

* fix(#1942): register vscode/package.json in VERSIONED_MANIFESTS (#844)

* fix(#1942): align vscode/package.json version with package.json (1.7.0-rc.1)

+<!-- docs-exempt: VS Code extension is a repo-local reference module; installation instructions are in the #1942 issue body + ADR-1239 Phase D context. No standalone docs/ file needed. -->
+**GSD now ships a repo-local VS Code extension** — a buildable extension (`vscode/extension.js` + `vscode/package.json`) that registers `gsd.invoke` (dispatches through the GSD command-routing hub) in the VS Code command palette. A reachability test proves the handler dispatches through the engine (keystone wired). Not Marketplace-published; mirrors the OpenCode plugin's bar. (#1966)
