Add a provider-neutral OIDC credential flow with GitHub Actions as the first provider. Exchange workflow identity tokens for short-lived Marketplace credentials and route them through the existing publish path without PAT fallback.

What changed
vsce publish --oidcauthentication modemarketplace.visualstudio.comaudiencePOST /_apis/gallery/tokenWhy
Trusted publishing removes long-lived PAT secrets from CI pipelines. GitHub Actions is the first supported provider, while the provider abstraction allows additional OIDC runtimes to be added without changing the Marketplace exchange or publish paths.
