Automate publishing the Edge extension in the Microsoft Store

[Jaifroid]

Microsoft is introducing a REST API to automate publishing Edge browser extensions. See https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/articles/introducing-api-to-automate-publishing-and-updating-microsoft/m-p/2654592 . The estimated date for availability is December.

Instructions are now available on how to use this API. I believe I could create a GitHub Action that would update the extension. It would need to be triggered by the same code that creates the unsigned extension zip, or chained from it.
