show environment type in python interpreter name in status bar

[wohenbushuang]

For example:
3.13.0 (env) => 3.13.0 (Venv:env)
3.13.0 (base) => 3.13.0 (Conda:base)
3.13.0 (default) => 3.13.0 (Pixi:default)

I don't understand why this issue will be transferred to this vscode python environments repo. The interpreter selection in status bar still exists when the vscode python environments extension is disabled.

(Why disable? Because you can't use python once you enable this extension, and this critical bug #381 haven't been fixed/updated for monthes!)

Sorry for not getting to that critical bug, I have just commented about some changes I made to address it which I hope you can try and let me know how it goes.

We will be moving to having the Python Environments Extension handle all environment related actions for Python, and take out that code in the Python extension. This means all future features related to environments will be part of this extension and is why I transferred it.

Much appreciate for your explanation. However, it will be very hard to obtain 7 👍 upvotes in 60 days in this new repo...

That is a fair point... you choose we can either leave it here and Ill lower the threshold to take it to 3 votes or we move it to the python ext and keep it at 7- lmk what you think!
