Blender 2.92 fails to install pip with get-pip.py

See original GitHub issue

I’m using Blender 2.92 with bundled Python on Ubuntu 18.04. When trying to Blender: Start, pip installation failed with following message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/chubei/.vscode/extensions/jacqueslucke.blender-development-0.0.13/pythonFiles/include/blender_vscode/external/get-pip.py", line 20890, in <module>
    main()

    a = os.fspath(a)
TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not int

It looks like some problem within get-pip.py.

I later solved this problem using ensurepip, which comes with the bundled Python.

@JacquesLucke Would it better to try ensurepip before get-pip.py in this extension? I’ll be happy to make a PR if you find it acceptable.
