fix: allow feat commits to bump minor version in pre-1.0.0 releases

Remove bump-patch-for-minor-pre-major setting to restore standard
semantic versioning behavior for pre-1.0.0 versions.

With this change:
- feat: commits bump minor version (0.1.1 → 0.2.0)
- BREAKING CHANGE: commits bump minor version (0.1.1 → 0.2.0)
- fix: commits bump patch version (0.1.1 → 0.1.2)

Previously, bump-patch-for-minor-pre-major caused feat: commits
to only bump patch versions, which prevented proper version
signaling for new features in pre-1.0.0 releases.

-#### 9.2.2 Release Workflow (`release.yml`)
-
-**Trigger:** On push to `main` branch
-
-**Jobs:**
-
-1. **Create or Update Release PR**
-   - Use `google-github-actions/release-please-action`
-   - Analyzes commits since last release
-   - Creates/updates a release PR with:
-     - Updated version in `package.json`
-     - Updated `CHANGELOG.md` with all changes
-     - Git tag for the new version
-   - Groups related changes by type (Features, Bug Fixes, etc.)
-
-2. **Build and Publish** (runs only when release PR is merged)
-   - Triggered by release-please creating a GitHub Release
-   - Runs on `ubuntu-latest` only (publishing needs single run)
-   - Steps:
-     1. Checkout code at release tag
-     2. Install dependencies (`npm ci`)
-     3. Run tests (`npm test`)
-     4. Build production package (`npm run package`)
-     5. Publish to VS Code Marketplace using `@vscode/vsce`
-     6. Upload .vsix to GitHub Release as asset
-
-**Required Secrets:**
-
-- `VSCE_PAT` - Personal Access Token for VS Code Marketplace publishing
-  - Obtained from Azure DevOps for VS Code Marketplace
-  - Stored in GitHub repository secrets
-  - Scoped to marketplace publishing only
-
-**Example Workflow Structure:**

-#### 9.2.3 Version Management
-
-**Versioning Scheme:** Semantic Versioning (SemVer)
-
-- **Format:** MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (e.g., 1.2.3)
-- **Initial Version:** 0.1.0 (pre-1.0 for initial development)
-- **Pre-1.0 Behavior:**
-  - Minor bumps for new features
-  - Patch bumps for bug fixes
-  - Breaking changes allowed without major bump (0.x.y is unstable)
-- **Post-1.0 Behavior:**
-  - Strict SemVer compliance
-  - MAJOR for breaking changes
-  - MINOR for new features
-  - PATCH for bug fixes
-
-**Version Sources:**
-
-- Single source of truth: `package.json` `version` field
-- Automatically updated by release-please
-- Git tags created automatically (e.g., `v1.2.3`)
