Description

if they do not have the Dependency Analytics extension installed already, vscode-xml should offer users to install it once when they open a pom.xml.

See https://github.com/redhat-developer/vscode-java/pull/1771.

vscode-java does it already, so we need a way to avoid displaying the same recommendation several times from several etensions.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked vscode-java pull request and tracing how vscode-xml handles opening a pom.xml. Determine how the Dependency Analytics extension recommendation should be shown only when the extension is absent and only once across vscode-java and vscode-xml. Done means the recommendation is coordinated and is not repeatedly displayed by multiple extensions.
