Allow to configure environment variables for extension host
See original GitHub issueI’ve got a really simple problem: often I open VS Code from a terminal, because I need to run export PATH=... in order to be able to use some extension inside of VS Code that uses a binary to work, e.g., this Lilypond extension, which works really well (thank you @lhl2617!), uses the lilypond external binary.
Perhaps a workspace could have environment variables in addition to project folders? 🤔

Yes, I agree that the idea is useful even if you specific example can be solved in another way. There are plenty of other cases where being able to set specific environment variables for a workspace would be useful.
