Collapse namespace pipeline

[noklam]

Description

Context

The only way to collapse a pipeline is using the side panel, this is not available in the extension which means we can only expand, but not collapse the pipeline.

I can explore how to collapse without using the side panel 👍 there is also the expand/collapse button in the action bar but this expands and collapses everything in the pipeline.

Thanks! @stephkaiser , we don't show this the action bar so we only have the flowchart view. We need to consider this together with #123, I would say this is the minimal change we need to make the flowchart usable in VSCode.

Feel free to playaround with it, it should be quite easy to setup by just using the demo project in viz and install the extension from VSCode. If you need help on this please let me know!

sounds good, thanks Nok!

it would be good to understand the priority for this work so we can plan it accordingly, is it a blocker for users at the moment?

For me, the priority are #58, we are planning to put this into a proper sprint so I will make sure discuss those ticket during grooming. (maybe in the Kedro framework one but I can invite you in that case).

I would say kedro-org/kedro#123 is the blocking one, which has been flagged by multiple users during demo (pre-release).
