.env file not parsed properly

[juha-ylikoski]

Type: Bug

This extension will try to load (by default) .env named file (setting ID: python.envFile). This file is not properly parsed.

Steps to reproduce

1. create file .env with content:

KEY="subkey1=subvalue1,subkey2=subvalue2"

2. Select a python interpreter (not sure if necessary)
3. Open a new integrated terminal (terminal>>new terminal). This opens a new terminal and uses the selected python interpreter there as env (e.g. with .venv sources the activate from the .venv folder)
4. run

$ echo $KEY
subkey1

This prints only the first part of the value of the "KEY" environment variable

Expected behavior

Environment variable should be parsed as bash and others parse them. This should cause it to be "subkey1=subvalue1,subkey2=subvalue2"
