401 error uploading Service Extension using latest sample MAKEFILE

I was working on other tasks but I got back to this and tried the workarounds again. Here’s what I had to do to get the Extend login step working:

This was the error I saw when trying to run the extend-helper-cli command, above:

	# failed to get console mode for stdin: The handle is invalid.
		# Error saving credentials: error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: `error storing credentials - err: exit status 1, out: `The stub received bad data.``
  1. Move three Docker credential exes to a backup directory (don’t just delete them):
    a. C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\resources\bin\docker-credential-*.exe
  2. Replace the contents of C:\Users\<me>\.docker\config.json with just empty braces: {}
  3. Then when you run the Extend Auth step again, it will succeed and complain about storing the password in plaintext in config.json, but actually it stores an auth token
  4. After logging in successfully and caching the auth token in config.json, copy the exes back into place.
