manuals: document VSCode extension

The VSCode extension is now officially maintained and published by the
Yocto Project so it should be referenced in the manuals to help users
discover it.

I located the most relevant places to reference the extension by looking
at how the old Eclipse plugin was documented in the 2.6 manuals as well
as the current Toaster references.
