Remove environment pollution, other cleanup and simplifications

For less undesired side-effects, the extension does not automatically patch settings.json anymore. It's the responsibility of the VSCode user to adjust settings.json and include necessary PATHs and variables - only as needed (e.g. if the user does rely on the Rust installation in ~/multiversx-sdk as opposed to a separate installation):

For Linux:

{
    "terminal.integrated.env.linux": {
        "PATH": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust/bin:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vmtools:${env:PATH}",
        "RUSTUP_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust",
        "CARGO_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust"
    },
    "rust-analyzer.server.extraEnv": {
        "PATH": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust/bin:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vmtools:${env:PATH}",
        "RUSTUP_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust",
        "CARGO_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust"
    }
}

For MacOS:

{
    "terminal.integrated.env.osx": {
        "PATH": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust/bin:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vmtools:${env:PATH}",
        "RUSTUP_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust",
        "CARGO_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust"
    },
    "rust-analyzer.server.extraEnv": {
        "PATH": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust/bin:${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vmtools:${env:PATH}",
        "RUSTUP_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust",
        "CARGO_HOME": "${env:HOME}/multiversx-sdk/vendor-rust"
    }
}

Rust-based contract interaction snippets will arise soon.

Writing contract interaction snippets in bash is now discouraged. We've dropped support for invoking such interaction snippets directly from the VSCode extension UI.

Existing bash-based interaction snippets can still be invoked from the CLI, as follows (example for the adder contract):

export PROJECT=$(pwd)
export USERS=~/multiversx-sdk/testwallets/latest/users

source interactions/testnet.snippets.sh && deploy
source interactions/testnet.snippets.sh && add

In the past, we've patched both launchItems and tasks collections of launch.json and tasks.json. Now we don't anymore.

Do not patch anymore .gitignore. This must be the responsibility of the user (with aid from the contract template system).
