Power Platform ToolBox 1.2.0

Highlights

Global search command palette in the activity bar for faster navigation and commands
Tool details open as a tab (instead of a modal) for smoother browsing and install decisions
Tool version compatibility checking to prevent running incompatible tools
Marketplace content moved to Azure Blob storage for improved reliability and load performance
pptb:// protocol handler to install tools directly from links
Connections: category filter/grouping plus environment color and browser-profile badges in selection modals
CSP exceptions: toolmakers can explain why an exception is needed with optional per-domain user consent
Update UX uses a themed in-app modal instead of native OS dialogs

Auto-update: "Restart & Install Now" now triggers the update correctly
Auto-update: update notification always-on-top behavior respects the configured option
Tools: tool tabs and launch logic correctly handle environment names in tab titles
Dataverse: entity collection bound actions/functions are handled correctly
Dataverse: date values in function parameters are formatted correctly
Notifications: toast behavior no longer forces always-on-top

Added pptb-validate CLI for pre-publish tool validation (packages/bin/pptb-validate.js)
Added CI workflow to publish @pptb/types with improved npm auth and environment isolation
Added build preflight checks to validate app version and ensure release notes are updated
Release workflows: refined versioning scheme and improved cross-platform artifact merge scripts
Telemetry: removed Sentry monitoring in favor of the centralized logger

No manual migration needed; existing settings and connections continue to work.
Tool developers: run pptb-validate before publishing, and include clear CSP exception rationale for any requested domains.
