Pull request overview
This PR adds a manual opt-in feature flag for the Actions Job Debugger, ensuring the debugger command/adapter are only registered when explicitly enabled, while still providing clear guidance via static debug-entry surfaces and README documentation.
Changes:
- Gate debugger registration behind a
settings.jsonopt-in (github-actions.debugger.enabled) and a desktop-only check. - Add a debug configuration provider guard to show explicit opt-in/reload messaging instead of failing silently.
- Update the README to document the preview opt-in and reload flow, and adjust Command Palette visibility.
