Addressing issue #24226
This adds a way to customize the timeout for the interpreter info script to run, by customizing the duration of the
VSC_PYTHON_INTERPRETER_INFO_TIMEOUT
environment variable.This is to address setups (e.g. a monorepo with Bazel) where the hard coded 15 seconds is insufficient, as the first Python run also includes additional setup work to ensure the venv is available for use before the interpreter can actually execute.
This is being done via env var instead of via a VS Code setting to avoid introducing additional settings that will be deprecated after other planned upcoming work on interpreter discovery (see discussion on 24226).
