Supports two modes of operation: Fuzzy mode (-Query): performs a text search across the marketplace, returning up to -PageSize results ranked by the chosen sort order. Exact mode (-ExtensionId): performs a precise lookup by qualified extension name (publisher.extensionname), returning only that extension. Optionally, -Version can be used to resolve a specific version; if the requested version is not found, the latest version is returned with a warning.
