Allow to use a Github Auth token for fetching releases
This change allows to use a authorization token provided by Github in order to fetch metadata for a RA release. Using an authorization token prevents to get rate-limited in environments where lots of RA users use a shared client IP (e.g. behind a company NAT). The auth token is stored in `ExtensionContext.globalState`. As far as I could observe through testing with a local WSL2 environment that state is synced between an extension installed locally and a remote version. The change provides no explicit command to query for an auth token. However in case a download fails it will provide a retry option as well as an option to enter the auth token. This should be more discoverable for most users. Closes #3688
