Support for remote development environments

[tanto259]

Description of the feature or enhancement

I would like to see support for remote development environments, such as WSL2 or VSCode Docker container, with the Db2 for z/OS Developer Extension.

This will aid development for people who are using such remote environments in their activities.

At the current state, using a remote development environment with VSCode results in keyring error despite having the pre-requisite installed. Refer to #63 for more information.

Logs excerpt

At the moment, running VSCode through code on the WSL2 terminal will result in this error:

[Error - 5:00:14 PM] Db2SqlServiceClient:process:stderr: 2022-02-03T17:00:14,834+0800 [ForkJoinPool.commonPool-worker-3] ERROR: com.github.javakeyring.PasswordAccessException: No stored credentials match db2forzosdeveloperextension/db2conn account: 3445d967-2f72-424e-82fc-dd7732cd3675/user

While connecting to WSL2 through a Windows-opened VSCode, will result in this error:

[Error - 5:04:19 PM] Db2SqlServiceClient:process:stderr: 2022-02-03T17:04:19,693+0800 [ForkJoinPool.commonPool-worker-3] ERROR: com.github.javakeyring.BackendNotSupportedException: No available keyring backend found

Hi @tanto259,

With v2.1.0, the extension can now run on remote development environments. Please see our doc Support for VS Code Remote Development for more details.

I will close this issue since the enhancement has been implemented in v2.1.0.
