If config provider has target platform/arch/config selection UI, ensure that's clearly disambiguated from cpptools config selection UI #10065

Feature Request

I'm working on a configuration provider which will internally manage multiple target binaries/configurations/etc itself, and add a status bar item to expose this to users. This configuration provider could either be used by defining a single configuration in the c_cpp_properties.json file, or by allowing cpptools to automatically detect and use it.

In a scenario like this, it would be ideal if cpptools were to hide the default status bar item that it creates to avoid user confusion. I think this could also be useful for configuration providers for build systems such as cmake.
