Optional notification for extensions update

[allisonrm95]

Problem

Extensions are able to silently update and actually default to auto-update when first downloaded from the marketplace. Right now, users can scan extensions whenever they want and will always get updated results. However, they may not know when an extension has updated, which means they might not do a new scan to catch potentially malicious updates.

Solution

There could be an optional feature that allows users to elect to receive a notification when any of their extensions has updated, prompting them to run the scans with the latest version of the extension.

There are additional potential levels to this feature:

• Send a notification whenever any extension is updated (only listening for general difference/change extensions folder)
• Store extension list in the user's settings for SusCode and then monitor updates so users can receive a specific notification about which extension updated.
• Have each scan store data about the results within the user's settings for the extension. This would allow SusCode to not only track for specific updates within the code of each extension, but also present the user with this differences, showing the before and after for each update.
• Do the above but with a database to store information externally if data size is too big or not ideal to store locally
