test(vscode): inject an unreleased toolchain into the E2E fixtures

RSTACK_E2E_TOOLCHAIN_OVERRIDES="name=<package dir>" packs each package into
<fixture>/.toolchain/ and adds a file: override to every fixture's pnpm-workspace.yaml,
so rstack-ecosystem-ci can run the suites against unreleased builds. Setup fails if the
lockfile still holds a registry version; the yaml is not restored (disposable checkouts).

 - Prefer running the E2E slice that covers the change over the full chain: `pnpm test:e2e <slice ...>` (or the `test:e2e:<slice>` aliases). Slices are declared in the `SLICES` table in `e2e/run.mjs` (name, fixtures, entry) — the package.json scripts are thin forwards and carry no slice knowledge. `RSTACK_LINT_E2E_SUITES=<name,...>` filters lint suites.
 - Run E2E locally as `VSCODE_CLI=1 pnpm test:e2e <slice ...>`. Without it, the launched VS Code overwrites the extension host's `PATH` with a login-shell snapshot; on a machine whose login-shell `node` is below the runtime floor, the User Node preflight (correctly) refuses and every fmt test times out waiting for a server. CI is unaffected — its PATH `node` is new enough either way. The heavier alternative, `--force-disable-user-env` in `e2e/runTest.ts`, was deliberately not taken: it would change env fidelity for every slice.
 - Linux E2E runs only in rstack-ecosystem-ci, which relies on `e2e/run.mjs` re-execing itself under `xvfb-run -a` when `DISPLAY` is unset (the whole chain runs against one X server, so `pnpm test:e2e` is the same command everywhere; `xvfb` is a prerequisite on Linux). This repo's CI runs E2E on Windows and macOS only, so the Linux path is not exercised here.
