Registries login for GHCR always fails.

[alherm7]

I can use the docker CLI to login to our company GHCR but when I use the same personal access token in the VScode docker plugin to log in, i consistenly get a 'Request to https://api.github.com/user/orgs failed with status 403: Forbidden' error. However, when I use the docker cli, all is good. The commands i use in the terminal are the following:

export CR_PAT= echo $CR_PAT | docker login ghcr.io -u alherm7 --password-stdin WARNING! Your password will be stored unencrypted in /Users/ahb/.docker/config.json. Configure a credential helper to remove this warning. See https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/login/#credentials-store

Login Succeeded

Does this occur consistently? Yes Repro steps:

1. Click on 'Connect Registry'
2. type in my github username
3. type in my github personal access token with package read and write scope
4. expand github section in registry
5. receive error: 'Request to https://api.github.com/user/orgs failed with status 403: Forbidden'

The Docker extension requires a PAT with slightly higher permissions than the CLI, because of the need to browse images in the registry--something the CLI cannot do. Can you try creating a classic token (not the new fine-grained ones) with the repo and write:packages scopes and see if that works?
