Do it see it correctly, that the merging is something that the user has to do manually?
Could you please shortly describe the workflow this feature would allow?

Correct. This is strictly a manual process.
On identification of a duplicate extension - such as Discord Notifications with and without space, or Miraheze Magic and <extensionname-mirahezemagic>, both of which we've actually encountered in this project - this would allow us to merge the two records. We call the first record "base" and the second "additional", and pass in the baseId and additionalId.
All of the software version records collected from wikibases that referred to the additional software would be shifted over to the base software. Any tags collected from Mediawiki for the additional would also be shifted to the base (avoiding duplicates, of course).
