Publish Vscode-Nim on OpenVSX

[Yu-Vitaqua-fer-Chronos]

Was asked to make an issue requesting this package to be listed on OpenVSX so it could be kept track of.

I want this since I use Code OSS instead of the official VSC program, and others may do the same.

Yep! I am using VSCodium, it would be great to have the extension over there too

WORKAROUND: Much thanks to starkiller on Discord for pointing out that the .vsix file can be downloaded from the Visual Studio extension's web portal by going to the Version History tab.

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=NimLang.nimlang

Direct download for v0.9.0 .vsix is available at:

In VSCodium, enter command mode (ctrl-shift-p), run ext inst vsix and browse for the download.

While yes you can install the VSIX file (which is what I did), it'd be much more convenient to have it published on OpenVSX too

At least attach the vsix file to the tags on Github. Or better, create releases on Github and attach the vsix file there.

Thanks, from now on we are going to publish the releases to make the process easier. Here is the release for v0.9.0 https://github.com/nim-lang/vscode-nim/releases/tag/v0.9.0
