[3.0.1] - (05-06-2021)

The main purpose behind this major release is a complete overhaul of the underlying rest/api calls. Most of the functionality has been moved to the f5-conx-core project/package so it can be consumed by others. F5-conx-core is now providing most of the device connectivity and function management within the vscode-f5 extension. Most of the code within the vscode-f5 extension is focused on providing the UI for all this functionality

command to select and download github releases of the extension to allow users easy access to future beta versions
- Like RPM mgmt, it will query github for all the releases (including betas) and provide a list for the user to select the desired version. It will then attempt to install the version. Success on the install command is very subjective, but at least it will provide the user with the path to the file so it can be installed through the UI

Updated axios agent to only return necessary information
- this also allowing for standardizing how responses are used across the entire extension
Updated Device delete function to clear keytar password
Fix for BIG-IQ AS3 declaration list
- Regular as3 returns an object for the device, AS3 with multi-device tenants (bigiq) returns a list of objects, one for each devcie declaration it has
Fix for tcl class view to refresh information accordingly when changing devices
Added more documentation links to Examples view
- Vscode-f5-fast repo link to provide a quick way to access documentation, examples, and issues
- Fasting repo link to provide a quick way to clone repo for demo's

Added 'F5-FAST -> Connect!' status bar to provide another way to connect
- This is especially useful when working in a repo, which is outside the main F5-Fast extension view
Added options for posting AS3/DO/TS declarations (highlight declaration in editor -> right-click)
support for remote authentication via logonProvider
- Updated config structure (what stores devices details)
- Includes right-click option on device to update logonProvider
  - This provides a list of default options for BIGIP and an option to provide a custom provider for BIGIQ
  - Also added function to show configured logon provider (right-click device in list)

Modified

Combined AS3 Tenant and Tasks views
- This should provider a cleaner and more efficient interface
- Now showing number of configured tenants and tasks
Updated FAST view
- Now includes item counts
- This also resulted in more efficient data storage and retrieval
Provided feedback and cancellation when connecting to devices
- including better feedback of auth errors and network timeout/errors
Updated examples to include DO github examples
- Added placeholder for AS3 and linked to AS3 repo issue with pending "examples" folder
Auth token now utilized for entire token lifetime
- Drastically cut down on network traffic constantly refreshing token for major different functions throughout extension
- Added configuration option to show token life countdown in status bar (disabled by default)
- If token does expire, next http call will refresh it as needed

Created a git repo for documenting the building of fast templates and a bunch of other things for demo'ing the extension
