Release v0.9.0

[Paulo Lacerda (placerda)]

Release v0.9.0

Automated release branch created from develop.

What happened

• Branch release/v0.9.0 created from develop
• CHANGELOG.md updated: versioned section [0.9.0] added
• Plugin versions synced to 0.9.0 (package.json, plugin.json, marketplace.json)
• Staging pipeline triggered automatically (build → TestPyPI + VSIX pre-release → verify)

Next steps

1. Wait for the Staging pipeline to pass. This is the only verification that runs before PyPI.
2. Review and approve this PR
3. Merge to main
4. Tag and push. This publishes to PyPI immediately, there is no approval step and no undo: git tag v0.9.0 && git push origin v0.9.0
5. Sync develop in the same sitting: git checkout develop && git merge main && git push origin develop
6. Verify the sync: git fetch origin && git log --oneline origin/develop..origin/main must print nothing

• Tag v0.9.0 pushed (publishes to PyPI, irreversible)
