Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Zowe Explorer is able to detect that changes have been made to team configuration outside of ZE. ZE is able to respond accordingly. However, ZE extensions are not notified of such changes.

The onProfilesUpdate event was added to the Zowe Explorer API in 2.10 and provides a way for ZE Extensions to be notified of team config changes.

The CICS plug-in provides an example of how to use this event: https://github.com/zowe/vscode-extension-for-cics/blob/9c15337b9dde68c8be857a4380fcf7ab25a268f7/src/extension.ts#L84-L88

Should this be closed with the merge of the PR https://github.com/zowe/zowe-explorer-vscode/issues/2385 and the API @t1m0thyj spoke about or is there something else being requested here @gejohnston?

There seems to be an recent issue with this behavior in 2.15.2

However, I do agree that the mechanism to notify extenders is technically available today 😋
