Automatically associate .flake8 files as an ini file

[thernstig]

Currently I have to add this to my project so that .flake8 is considered an INI-file.

  "files.associations": {
    ".flake8": "ini"
  },

It would be cool if VS Code could add this into the extension instead so that one does not have to configure it.

Should be simple as per microsoft/vscode-eslint@4d8d146

@DonJayamanne I can fix this if you want me to, but the label "needs decision" makes me wonder if you want it fixed?

[DonJayamanne]

We're waiting to decide (team decision) whether we need such an enhancement.
If we get the green light I'll let you know here so you can create a PR.
My vite is to go with this change and add support for other similar files.

We changed the label to "needs PR", so if anyone wants to submit a PR for this we'll be happy to review it :)

@luabud @karthiknadig You can maybe close this now, I fixed it and it has been merged :)

See #7739

@thernstig thanks for reminding us to close this, and again, thanks for the PR! 😊
