Ensure interpreter information in the status bar appears for "Python related" files

See original GitHub issue

Currently it’s only displayed if a Python file or a settings.json file is opened. Some of other things we should probably display it for:

Also note there can various types of requirements files: https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-python/blob/e157943a1dc7edfff238e1acdf7e57e3dd6558fc/package.json#L1470-L1477

Since we’ve a setting to always show interpreter and we haven’t received any other reports asking to show this, closing this issue.

(Should I create a new issue for this or am I at the right place?)

This is as good as any other place. 🙂

Another option we have is bringing back the “always show” mechanic when we move to the language status menu. Since it would be hidden behind the {} menu it would be less intrusive, so the objections to always showing it may become less of a concern. I’ve asked the wider VS Code team for input on this idea.
