Update tailscale extension

[McKeev]

Description

Adds a menu bar command that displays a Tailscale connection indicator. When connected, an icon appears in the menu bar. When disconnected, nothing is shown.

Clicking the icon reveals a dropdown with connection details (hostname, IPv4, tailnet name, active exit node) -> each item copies its value to clipboard on click.

The command includes preferences to:

• Choose the menu bar icon (Tailscale icon light/dark, or 🔗 emoji)
• Toggle hostname, IP address, and tailnet name display next to the icon
• Status refreshes every 10 seconds

Checklist

• I read the extension guidelines
• I read the documentation about publishing
• I ran npm run build and tested this distribution build in Raycast
• I checked that files in the assets folder are used by the extension itself
• I checked that assets used by the README are placed outside of the metadata folder

Greptile Summary

This PR adds a new menubar command to the Tailscale extension that displays a connection indicator in the menu bar when connected, with preferences for the icon style and optional hostname/IP/tailnet labels. The implementation is clean and consistent with the existing extension patterns, with one minor concern around error handling granularity.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge; the single finding is a P2 style suggestion about error handling granularity that does not affect core functionality.

All P0/P1 issues from prior review threads (mismatched iconStyle default, manual Preferences interface, phantom refreshInterval field) appear to have been addressed. The only remaining finding is a P2 suggestion to distinguish expected not-connected silences from unexpected errors in the catch block.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
extensions/tailscale/src/menubar.tsx	New menu bar command — logic is straightforward, but the catch-all error handler silently swallows non-connectivity errors (invalid path, daemon not running).
extensions/tailscale/package.json	Adds menubar command registration with four well-formed preferences; iconStyle default corrected to "command_icon" matching the dropdown values.
extensions/tailscale/CHANGELOG.md	New entry added at the top with the required {PR_MERGE_DATE} placeholder — follows the changelog convention correctly.

extensions/tailscale/src/menubar.tsx:74-77
**Overly broad catch silently hides unexpected errors**

The empty `catch {}` returns `null` for every exception — including `InvalidPathError` (bad CLI path), `NotRunningError` (Tailscale daemon not running), and any JS runtime error. Only a `NotConnectedError` should produce a silent hide; other states leave the user with no indication of what went wrong. Consider distinguishing the cases:

```suggestion
  } catch (err) {
    if (err instanceof NotConnectedError) {
      return null;
    }
    // Surface other errors (not running, invalid path, etc.) via an error icon
    return <MenuBarExtra icon={{ source: "command-icon.png" }} tooltip={String(err)} />;
  }
```
