🚀 v2.0.0 — Structured Grouped Menu and Classic Menu

Highlights

New Default: Structured Grouped Menu

This is a major release that changes the default context menu experience for AKS clusters. Commands are now organized into role-based groups instead of a flat list:

Group	Purpose
Develop & Deploy	Kubectl, ACR attach, Draft, KAITO, Azure Service Operators
Troubleshoot & Diagnose	AKS Diagnostics, Periscope, Inspektor Gadget, Retina
Manage Cluster	Properties, Portal, delete, rotate cert, reconcile

Prefer the classic layout? A single click on "AKS: Take me back to Classic Menu" (available in the context menu and Command Palette) restores the previous experience instantly. Both modes remain fully supported.

VSIX to test

For converting to vsix, please rename this zip file but removing the .zip in the end, please don't extract it.

Pull request overview

This PR bumps the extension version from 1.7.8 to 2.0.0 to publish the v2.0.0 release, which makes the structured grouped context menu the default, adds the "Ask @Azure" Copilot integration, and includes the other features summarized in the description. The lockfile is regenerated alongside the version bump, resulting in many devOptional → dev reclassifications.

Changes:

• Bump version in package.json from 1.7.8 to 2.0.0.
• Bump root version entries in package-lock.json to 2.0.0.
• Regenerated lockfile reclassifies many transitive packages from devOptional to dev (and tags ajv, fast-json-stable-stringify, json-schema-traverse as dev).
