Quick Create fails to install packages

[cwebster-99]

I am tried to run Quick Create at the root of vscode-python-templates and package install failed. Is this because it is using all requirements files and cannot resolve?

The environment still got created just not with the packages. I had to reference the environment managers venv list in order for the environment to show up in this case. How can we better resolve the environment in this scenario?

If there are multiple requirements files should we be attempting to install everything with Quick Create?

Should we just raise an error and ask the user to go through and select as a part of the resolution?
