[matklad.rust-analyzer] Extension autopublish killed by an upstream change

[Mazwak]

A change in extension publishing killed auto publish.

See rust-lang/rust-analyzer#11080

@filiptronicek Can you guide authors to remove an extension from here and let them to publish directly? I think it would be the best and align with https://github.com/open-vsx/publish-extensions#when-to-add-an-extension

[Mazwak]

For the record
Direct publish declined by maintainer on July 2020 in rust-lang/rust-analyzer#4936
Things changed in 2021 in rust-lang/rust-analyzer#7284
but it is blocked by eclipse/openvsx#336

To users that want an updated RA in their vscode clone, you have to install the vsix release for the time being
https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/releases
And update every week or two manually

@akosyakov should we remove the extension now because it's not working anyway and they are willing to go through with publishing directly?

[akosyakov]

Yes. I think it will be good to stop publishing it from here. Could you also investigate what was last working version and ask to unpublish broken versions?

@filiptronicek the mentioned commit seems to remove something else not matklad.rust-analyzer?

@akosyakov fixed it, thanks for letting me know!
