Expose the link to Channel 9 video about the workbench #399

The docs mention the IoT Worbench extension as the main tool behind intergation now, but there is no prominent link to the introductory material about the tool itself (or it is hard to find):

Introduction to the new IoT Workbench extension for VS Code https://channel9.msdn.com/Shows/Internet-of-Things-Show/IoT-Workbench-extension-for-VS-Code

Instead the docs directly link only to the old experience docs:

Notice: Azure IoT Workbench is the new tool for developing on DevKit. If you are looking for old experiences by using the installer, you can find it here

The direct description of the workbench is not provided on the project page itself:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vsciot-vscode.vscode-iot-workbench#overview

The more direct description of what Azure IoT Workbench is is hidden in detail docs, like this one: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode-iot-workbench/blob/d8fa7b6a6d3f349a3f0e921d400c0e26d3b8324c/docs/raspberry-pi/raspi-get-started.md

Azure IoT Workbench provides an integrated experience to develop IoT solutions. It helps both on device and cloud development using Azure IoT and other services. You can watch this Channel9 video to have an overview of what it does.

Can the video be more prominently exposed on website? It directly shows what the tool is and what the most folks look for when poking around.

Thanks!

Thanks @peterblazejewicz for paying attention to our products, both IoT DevKit and the new IoT Workbench. We're working on the IoT Workbench and promote it not only for IoT DevKit bur for more devices and services. Hopefully we can finish all documents and spread to multiple social medias:)
