Create __init__.py when creating new `.py` files with `/`

[rik]

VS Code will create directories when creating files that include a /. When that file is a .py, it would be nice to create the necessary __init__.py as well.

For bonus points, it would be nice to create __init__.pyi when creating a filename ending in .pyi.

Thanks for the suggestion! We talked about it with the team and we have unfortunately decided we will not be moving forward with this idea. We think there isn't an enough widespread need for this to warrant the maintenance cost for the feature.

shame this wasn't done.
vscode now doesn't differ between normal folder and package and is not able to create init.py file automatically..
