Description
Now that more extension authors are contributing walkthroughs for their extensions, I think it makes sense to add a guide to our extension docs for creating the artwork with support for theming as we did for the core walkthroughs.

This could include:
- A step-by-step example of creating an illustration for a walkthrough step
- Links + example of how to use the VS Code Color Mapper figma plugin
- Examples from core
cc @digitarald for any other input based on discussions with those adopting the walkthroughs
