Migrating from VS Code extension 2.x to 3.x

ST recommends that users uninstall any previous 2.x versions of STM32 for VS Code Extension before installing any newer release version. This step ensures a clean installation and prevents duplication of functionalities between the old and new versions.

Notably, the 3.x and newer versions eliminates the need for CLT, streamlining the setup process.

Our internal testing indicates that migrating from version 2.x to 3.x and newer versions has not led to any known issues. However, performing a clean installation is advised as an additional precaution to avoid potential conflicts.
