Description
### Feature summary
A new button to open VSCode instantly as a workspace
### What problem are you trying to solve?
Currently i need to use the open VSCode Button, wait for t he message "this folder contains a workspace file... Do you want to open it?", i click on "Open Workspace" and need to wait again for loading.
We could skip that if it would be possible to open the workspace directly from the copilot app.
### Proposed solution
A new Button to open the Workspace in VSCode directly
### Workflow impact
It would remove the additional step to open the workspace manually
### Installation context
_No response_
### Additional context
_No response_
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the existing Open VSCode button and the flow that handles a workspace file. Check how the Copilot app launches VSCode and where the workspace-open prompt is triggered. Done means a new button or equivalent action opens the workspace directly without requiring the extra confirmation step.
