  1. Search for angular in the extension explorer

Bug
Note that extension names that are too long have a hard cutoff

Suggested Fix
Add a ... overflow to the name, similar to the extension description

@mjbvz I would like to contribute here. As the names of the extensions are under a flex box we should force the ... on its children, as text-overflow applies to block elements.

.extensions-viewlet>.extensions .extension>.details>.header-container>.header {
min-width: 0;
} 
.....
.extensions-viewlet>.extensions .extension>.details>.header-container>.header>.name{
text-overflow: ellipsis;
white-space: nowrap;
overflow: hidden;
}

fixes the issue.
Can I submit a PR here?

@RISHII7 Sure, a PR would be great. You may want to take a look at #24242 for this as well since that problem is somewhat related to this one

I believe @joaomoreno or @sandy081 should be able to review any PRs here and provide help on this issue
