Subject: [PATCH] feat: update GitHub Actions workflow and package version for
 VS Code extension

- Enhanced the GitHub Actions workflow to check out the base branch of the pull request for accurate builds.
- Added steps to read package metadata and ensure the VSCE token is provided before publishing.
- Updated the version in package.json from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2 to reflect the new changes.
