Solution explorer ability to move files #445

Move files with the solution explorer

One of the most missed features of the c# devkit solution explorer is the ability to move files to different folders. Also move to file/namespace refactoring action can complement this feature. VSCode default explorer does this at the moment, but it's very inconvenient to switch between the two views all the time.

Alternatives considered

VSCode default file explorer

Environment Information

OS: macOS EXT VERSION: v0.4.6

If you do move a file in the file explorer, all kinds of things break (red squigglies everywhere) and you have to close/re-open VS Code. If you're moving more than one or two files, this is an immediate show-stopper.

In a similar vein, copying files would also be a great addition.

Would be nice if it had, those complex operations: Cut Copy Paste Delete 😄

Yes please, having to switch between file view and solution explorer is very frustrating and confusing.

In fact, let's get rid of solution explorer and have everything doable via the normal file explorer.
