Azure Account extension that Teams Toolkit extension depends on for authentication will be deprecated in January 2025

Hello 👋,

Azure Account extension that Teams Toolkit extension depends on for authentication will be deprecated in January 2025. Please see microsoft/vscode-azure-account#964 for more details and migration guidance.

After taking a look at the extension, I believe it only relies on Azure Account for login, and then listing subscriptions. If this is accurate, the migration should be pretty simple. You can either use the VS Code built-in Microsoft authentication API directly, or use our npm library that wraps VS Code's API.

Please reach out to me on Teams for questions or support.

Thanks for the reminder. In a recent release, we switched to using VS Code's built-in authentication. Therefore, we will be removing the Azure Account extension.
