The extension should not ask for a cmake file on projects that are not C++

[danielo515]

Issue Type: Bug

I work with a lot of codebases, and just a very few of them are C/C++
However, this extension keeps asking me to create Cmake files on every project I open. Ideally the extension should detect the project language and don't bother me with it unless it is an obvious C/C++ project.

Extension version: 1.7.1
VS Code version: Code 1.61.2 (6cba118ac49a1b88332f312a8f67186f7f3c1643, 2021-10-19T15:49:28.381Z)
OS version: Darwin x64 20.6.0
Restricted Mode: No

Unfortunately, the problem is that VS Code activates our extension against our declared intentions and doesn't tell us that or give us a way to know that it happened. This issue would give us the information we need to not bother you: microsoft/vscode#44711.

The VS Code team just made a change to stop activating extensions when the search for CMakeLists.txt times out. It should appear in the next VS Code Insiders build.

Thanks for the quick fix! Even if it takes a couple of days to release 😄

Today's Insiders build might already have it. I'm not sure when the next stable build will release. I assume early December.
