I think there isn't, and if there is it would be illegal:

> You may not sublicense the Software Code or any use of it

https://github.com/microsoft/azuredatastudio/blob/main/LICEN...

To publish a version of Azure Data Studio with open-source binaries would fall under copy/modification rules, which are explicitly allowed in the license:

> Microsoft Corporation ("Microsoft") grants you a nonexclusive, perpetual, royalty-free right to use, copy, and modify the software code provided by us ("Software Code").

It would not be a sublicense.
