Auto-installed when I request just the Python extension

[taylor-paskett]

In a devcontainer, I want to install the ms-python.python extension. However, this extension also gets installed, and it breaks "Go to Definition" and makes my environments disappear in the Select Python Interpreter menu. I want to manage my own python environments, and don't want this extension to do it. However, I want the Python extension and Pylance extensions to be active. How do I decouple this extension so it doesn't get downloaded whenever I request ms-python.python?

Was there issue related to pylance when env extension is used? @eleanorjboyd @StellaHuang95

@taylor-paskett In the meantime I think you can add "python.useEnvironmentsExtension": false, to your settings.json this will disable/turn off env extension for now.

Seems like the code here is writing the envs extension to package.json.
