- Introduce `pnpm install:vsix` command for automated VSIX installation.
- This new command handles uninstalling existing versions, building the latest VSIX, and installing it directly into the specified editor.
- Add options (`-y` for non-interactive, `--editor=<command>` to specify editor like `cursor` or `code-insiders`) to the `install:vsix` script.
- Update `README.md` to provide clearer, segmented instructions for running the extension:
- Development Mode (F5) with clarified hot reload behavior.
- Automated VSIX Installation using the new `pnpm install:vsix` command.
- Manual VSIX Installation steps.
