Suggestion: Open Chrome in a Preview Tab, with the extension loaded

[felladrin]

Description

This PR changes .gitpod.yml to start the workspace with Chrome opened in the Preview Tab, with this extension loaded. So we can test it directly inside Gitpod.

I originally made this change to be able to test #54, but unfortunately, via noVNC, I was not able to trigger shortcuts (like "." to open Web IDE). That's why I decided to submit the change in a separate PR.

Related Issue(s)

None.

How to test

Open this PR on Gitpod, and you will see Chrome opened in the Preview Tab. A GitHub tab will also be opened, and you'll see the Gitpod button there.

@gtsiolis I requested your review since I am a bit new to this repo, so I could have missed something, otherwise, !

Nice one, @felladrin! 🔮

I see no reason to hold this back.

issue: I remember trying this a while ago and it worked as expected, however, I'm now getting the following error when I open the PR in Gitpod. Any thoughts why this might be happening? 💭

Thanks for the ping @filiptronicek! 🏓

[felladrin]

Ah, probably due to a race condition. Let me adjust it.

[gtsiolis]

Thanks for taking a look, @felladrin! You've probably already seen this but now while the extension is successfully installed I get this error in a new tab when I open the PR. Expected?

[felladrin]

I saw it happening twice before, but after refreshing the extension welcome page it worked fine.

Now I've opened this PR in a new Gitpod instance and it worked fine, so I suspect it was some temporary issue with Gitpod website.

Tried this a couple of times and it worked fine. Sounds safe to merge since it does not alter anything to related to the browser extension itself. We can always revert if we run into any issues.

Thanks @felladrin for making this change, @filiptronicek for reviewing, and @andreafalzetti for stopping by! 🚌
