'Select Top 10/100/N' does not work for Azure SQL Database

Hello,

I've recently installed your extension, but it does not seem to work for Azure SQL Databases. Whenever I use any of the 'Select Top 10/100/N', nothing happens apart from the N-dialog asking me how many rows. There is no query opening in a new window and getting results. I am connected through Entra/Azure AD and I am in the main admin group.

I did find this error in the SQL Tools Service output that gets printed every time I try one of the actions:

[Error - 5:24:52 PM] Request query/simpleexecute failed.
  Message: Query has no results to return
  Code: 0 

Furthermore, it does work on a on-prem Windows Server 2022 hosted SQL Server 16 database.

Data Studio version: v1.48
Extension version: v0.0.5
OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19045

Thank you for your time. :)

Adding 'select top N ordered by primary key descending'

Would this make sense?
Would you accept a pull request with the mentioned implementation?

"SELECT TOP 10/ 100/ N/ N without query" commands do not work

None of the following commands seem to work:

The only thing that works correctly is SELECT TOP 1000.

Expected result:

Command should open new window, display and execute the query.

Actual result:

Nothing happens.
