v1.2.0

Changed

• Writes r.executablePath and r.consoleArgs (vscode-R 3.x) instead of the deprecated r.rpath.<platform> and r.rterm.option. Switching a workspace removes the deprecated settings; R: Use R Version from renv.lock also rewrites a workspace that already uses the right version through them.
• If R Debugger is installed, r.rpath.<platform> is kept and set to the same value as r.executablePath, since R Debugger reads only that setting and would otherwise start the first R on PATH.
• Uses rig's version link on PATH (R-4.5.1.exe on Windows, R-4.5.1 elsewhere) instead of the full path to R.exe when the link exists, so .vscode/settings.json holds no install path and can be committed.
• Keeps the console arguments already in effect (your own, the ones in the deprecated r.rterm.option, or vscode-R's default) and only sets --r-binary.
• Rollback restores the workspace values only, instead of copying user settings into the workspace.
• Repository links and author in package.json, LICENSE, README, CONTRIBUTING and CHANGELOG.

Fixed

• R: Show Current Version resolves a version link on PATH instead of reporting it as an invalid path.
