Add a new action 'workbench.action.chat.exportAsMarkdown' that exports the current chat session as a formatted Markdown file (.md). The command: - Appears in the command palette (F1) - Shows in the Chat context menu and Chat title bar menu - Uses the existing stringifyItem() utility for consistent formatting - Filters out system-filtered responses - Opens a Save dialog with .md filter Also adds smoke tests verifying the Export Markdown, Export JSON, and Import Chat commands are discoverable in the command palette. Fixes microsoft#276629
