This commit adds telemetry capturing for command execution. The data captured explicitly captured and sent to application insights is only the command id, execution time, and command completion status. We also capture errors thrown by any command execution, but these are not sent to application insights. Telemetry capturing is opt-in. No data will be sent to application insights unless the user explicitly allows it. There are two new config settings added. The first controls whether or not telemetry should be sent. This setting AND the global telemetry setting must be enabled in order for telemetry to be sent. The second setting controls whether or not telemetry event data should be logged to the extension console. The hope here is that users can inspect exactly what data is sent to the server and can have confidence that nothing concerning is being leaked. Note that the global setting for disabling telemetry collection is handled inside the `vscode-extension-telemetry` package implicitly, so this extension doesn't touch that setting explicitly. The `codeql.canary` setting is being used to add an additional flag to telemetry events. This flag will help us determine if a user in internal or not. The application insights key is injected at build time through a repository secret. This commit also includes a new `TELEMETRY.md` file that explains what is being captured, and why. |

CodeQL for Visual Studio Code
This project is an extension for Visual Studio Code that adds rich language support for CodeQL. It's used to find problems in code bases using CodeQL. It's written primarily in TypeScript.
The extension is released. You can download it from the Visual Studio Marketplace.
To see what has changed in the last few versions of the extension, see the Changelog.
Features
- Enables you to use CodeQL to query databases and discover problems in codebases.
- Shows the flow of data through the results of path queries, which is essential for triaging security results.
- Provides an easy way to run queries from the large, open source repository of CodeQL security queries.
- Adds IntelliSense to support you writing and editing your own CodeQL query and library files.
Project goals and scope
This project will track new feature development in CodeQL and, whenever appropriate, bring that functionality to the Visual Studio Code experience.
Contributing
This project welcomes contributions. See CONTRIBUTING.md for details on how to build, install, and contribute.
