python.venvPath config setting does not expand variables

See original GitHub issue

I’m migrating from coc-python, and I have this in my global config file

  "python.venvPath":"~/.virtualenvs",

Previously this worked, but now I see the following message in the pyright output:

[Error  - 12:17:32] venvPath /home/ash/code/airflow/airflow/~/.virtualenvs is not a valid directory.

I also tried with $HOME, neither worked.

Please could one of these expansion mechanisms work before the config is passed on to pyright?

  "python.venvPath":"${env:HOME}/.virtualenvs",

Probably no space after the :

For anyone coming across this issue, the fix is (or will be when next pyright release happens) is to use ${env:HOME}
