Rebrand to "DocumentDB extension for Visual Studio Code" #1024
Description
The extension is now the DocumentDB extension for Visual Studio Code, matching how it is presented with DocumentDB 1.0 on documentdb.io (documentdb/documentdb.github.io#226).
All work below ships together in the 1.0.1 patch release.
Naming rule
Product name: DocumentDB extension for Visual Studio Code
| Where | Name to use |
|---|---|
| Marketplace listing, README, docs, release notes, blog posts, announcements (title and first mention) | DocumentDB extension for Visual Studio Code |
| Later mentions in the same text | "the extension" or "the DocumentDB extension" |
In-product UI (displayName, output channel, walkthrough, prompts) |
DocumentDB, or "the DocumentDB extension" where it could be confused with the database |
| Running text | "VS Code" is fine, e.g. "without leaving VS Code" |
Unchanged: the extension ID ms-azuretools.vscode-documentdb, the repo slug vscode-documentdb, all URLs, and historical content (0.x release notes, CHANGELOG.md, docs/ai-and-plans/**). "DocumentDB GUI" stays in descriptions for search.
