Truffle for VS Code v2.7.0 ("aranha 🕷️") now available

[acuarica]

Hey all, quick heads up that Truffle for VS Code (codename "aranha") is now in the wild!

This release brings some new exciting features regarding the debugger, namely it allows you to fetch external sources when debugging external transactions, reuse your truffle-config.js networks to debug a transaction and trigger the visual debugger from the command line. It also includes a fix that removes deprecated networks after the merge and a range of smaller fixes and improvements.

Give it a try and let us know what you think!
