Description
I've filed a VS request at https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/C:-Add-Extract-Variable-refactoring/10357919
"Extract to constant (field)" or "Extract to constexpr (field)" might be possibilities in the future too (not sure if those would need to be tracked separately though).
Our previous issue is at https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-cpptools/issues/1162, but that got changed to track only Extract Function/Method.

Research direction
Start with the linked Visual Studio Developer Community request and the previous vscode-cpptools issue 1162, then compare the existing Extract Function/Method tracking with the requested Extract Variable support. Done means the extension supports Extract Variable refactoring; the issue does not name files or tests to run.
