Wrong version of redhat.java extension being installed on 4.107.0

Hi, I don't know if this is a bug or something else, but something weird is going on. I have a docker image that is based on codercom/code-server that, among other things, installs the redhat.java extension (here is the command, if it matters). I'm upgrading from 4.106.2-noble to 4.107.0-noble as the base image. In this upgrade, I noticed that, instead of using the latest version of redhat.java (1.50.0, as seen on open-vsx), it is installing 1.12.0. I'm not sure why this 3-year-old version is being used. Not only that, but 1.12.0 is significantly larger in size than 1.50.0, at 131MB for 1.12 vs 56MB for 1.50. The weird part is that rebuilding with 4.106.2 or 4.106.3 causes the correct version (1.50.0) to be used again. Did something change in 4.107.0 that would cause this change in behaviour?

UPDATE: it seems (though I'm not 100% sure) that the size difference may be explained by the use of an architecture-specific version of the extension instead of the universal extension. This doesn't explain the use of the previous version though.

Also, installing [email protected] works, so it's not as if 1.50.0 is not available, only it's not tagged as the latest in this particular context.
