Modify plugins to use dotnet tool list -g to find globally installed version about csharpier

[belav]

I've updated all of the extensions so that they use dotnet tool list -g to determine the globally installed version of csharpier, this should work more reliably then the old method of running dotnet csharpier --version

I am wondering if this is some kind of difference between the user the command runs as when executed in rider vs when you run the command yourself on the cli. But that doesn't really make sense if the command to install csharpier fails because it is already installed.

The only thing I can think to try, is uninstall csharpier. And then let rider try to install it.

Otherwise setting it up as a local tool would avoid the issue, because it will find the version from the dotnet-tools.json file.

I can also look into modifying the extensions to make use of dotnet tool list -g to determine the globally installed version instead.

On mac using Rider, I've found that manually installing globally doesn't work. I had to install the plugin and then use the Rider provided option to install locally to the project. It then created the dotnet-tools.json file and worked.

Using the Rider option to install globally also failed.

I can confirm that uninstalling CSharpier globally, then installing it locally through the extension pop-up solves the issue. It also creates a .config folder in the project root. Installing it globally through the pop-up does not work for me either.

I would really appreciate the possibility to use the already installed global tool, instead of a project-specific install.

Installing it globally through the pop-up does not work for me either.

Is there anything in the logs when you try that indicates why it is failing? Ideally I'd get that working as well to avoid any confusion.

Here is the log. I don't see anything that makes it clear why the global install process is failing. If there's any other place where I can look for debug logs outside of Rider logs, please let me know. As a side note, this log is after I reinstalled my OS and Rider, for unrelated reasons.
