Document whitelist sites for VSCode and Positron Extension Installation #756

Description

I have deployed workbench with a license in kubernetes, and we have a firewall with explicit allowlists.

When installing extensions in both IDEs, it fails due to this firewall:

2026-01-20 15:29:55.883 [error] [Window] Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established: Error: Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established

None of these logs provide any insight into which sites to whitelist to allow extension installation either.

Somehow VSCode allows actually browsing the extensions, but fails to install, whereas positron only ever shows existing extensions and recommends updating them?
