Show parent items for faster context during estimation #255

We are using the Estimate extension extensively. When we are working on multiple projects at a time it is sometimes confusing which stories belong to which project as some feature development might be quite similar.

We are using this structure for our projects: image https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/boards/work-items/about-work-items?view=azure-devops&tabs=agile-process

It would be great to see the parent items (task -> user story -> feature -> epic) in the estimate view like an extended "related work" element in the user story card view for example.

Hi! good suggestion I will add it to the backlog.

This would be useful for simply working with a single backlog as well. showing the hierarchy of work for context would help to ensure everyone voting visually sees the related work items to help with estimates.
