This change enables the UI for image input, but the VS Code Language Model API doesn't actually have a LanguageModelImagePart class. Images will still be converted to text placeholders. Is this intentional?
If the VS Code LM API does support images through some other mechanism, could we add a comment explaining how it works?

These comments correctly state that VS Code LM API doesn't have direct image support, yet we're setting supportsImages: true in the provider. This seems contradictory.
Users will be able to add images in the UI, but they'll just be converted to text placeholders like [Image (base64): image/png]. This might not provide the expected functionality.

The test only verifies that the placeholder text changed format, but doesn't actually test that images are being processed correctly by the VS Code LM API. Should we add a test that verifies the actual image handling behavior?

The VSCode LM API doesn't support images. |

Summary
This PR attempts to address Issue #7256 where users cannot paste or drag images when using the VS Code Language Model API provider.
Problem
Users reported that image pasting and shift-dragging doesn't work with VS Code LM API models, even though these features work fine with other providers that support images.
Solution
The issue was that the
supportsImagesflag was hardcoded tofalsein the VS Code LM provider configuration. This caused the UI to disable image input controls when VS Code LM was selected.Changes

Fixes #7256
Feedback and guidance are welcome!
