## Pull request overview

## Pull request overview

This pull request adds a clear signal for extension authors to detect when their program is being invoked by `gh` (vs executed directly), by setting `GH_EXTENSION=1` for all extension dispatch paths. It also documents the new environment variable and adds both unit and acceptance coverage to prevent regressions across OS-specific dispatch logic.

**Changes:**
- Set `GH_EXTENSION=1` in the environment for extension processes launched via `Manager.Dispatch`.
- Document `GH_EXTENSION` in `gh help environment`.
- Add unit tests for environment propagation/override and a new end-to-end acceptance script covering the required scenarios.

Start with pkg/cmd/extension/manager.go and its tests in pkg/cmd/extension/manager_test.go, then review the environment documentation in pkg/cmd/root/help_topic.go. Run the acceptance coverage in acceptance/testdata/extension/extension-env.txtar and confirm the documented dispatch behavior and environment handling across the listed invocation paths.
