Install Another Version... takes a really long time for the C# extension only

[cateyes99]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: N/A

• VS Code Version: 1.63.2
• OS Version: Windows 10 Enterprise, Version 20H2, OS Build 19042.1415

I raised an issue regarding this in OmniSharp-VSCode's repo, but they suggested that the issue should be raised here.

Steps to Reproduce:

For weeks, i've noticed that among the all extensions i've installed, the C# one is the only one has this issue. Go to the Extensions view. Click Install Another Version... on the menu for the C# extension. Observe that after hanging for a long time (it took me 56 seconds), the expected list of versions finally shows up.

Getting the same behavior with the GitLab Workflow extension, also takes forever but eventually loads.
Seems it happens with extensions that have many versions -> long list to produce

There is a PR - #136992 for this and not an issue tracking it. I will use this issue for tracking that PR
