Improve Marketplace presentation and discoverability #20

Description

@Perdolique

Summary

Improve the Marketplace presentation, repository metadata, and discoverability of Zero Reference.

Scope

  • Add a distinctive 256x256 PNG extension icon and include it in the VSIX.
  • Replace the current low-resolution GIF with a current, high-DPI demonstration of conservative detection and result removal after a reference is added.
  • Expand the README with:
    • the zero-only product promise;
    • comparison with VS Code's built-in reference CodeLens;
    • supported declarations and languages;
    • configuration and commands;
    • external/dynamic reference limitations;
    • exclusion and suppression examples when available.
  • Update repository and issue URLs to the canonical Perdolique/vscode-zero-reference location.
  • Evaluate Linters and Programming Languages Marketplace categories instead of relying only on Other.
  • Keep contributor/release instructions separate from the user-focused opening sections.

Acceptance criteria

  • vsce package completes without warnings about icon, links, or images.
  • The packaged VSIX contains the icon, README assets, and only required runtime files.
  • README links and images render correctly from both GitHub and Marketplace base URLs.
  • The first viewport explains what the extension does, what it does not prove, and how it differs from built-in reference counts.
  • The Marketplace listing displays the new icon, categories, and current repository links after publication.
