vscode-wpilib Add python exclusions to gitignore

There are too many raw file blocks in here. Do all of these file types get put in the root?

It's mostly pulled from the github python template gitignore. The only ones I've noticed locally are __pycache__ and venv

Yeah we'd want to limit this to folders. Raw blocking file types is incorrect, because other projects might need those.

@ThadHouse I've minimized to just what I think is necessary for Python

Under what conditions would these python files end up in a gradle wpi project?

It doesn't currently but all robotpy init does is add a robot.py and pyproject.toml, but given #622 I would expect VS Code to create Python projects.

Additionally, robotpy init doesn't have a gitignore either, which requires users to create their own. Using the wpilib project gitignore seems like a good start.

I think that robotpy init making a .gitignore would be better then copying a C++/Java .gitignore. And even if it was implemented in the vs-code extension, I think it would be a different .gitignore, rather then adding onto the C++/Java one.

robotpy now creates a .gitignore. https://github.com/robotpy/robotpy-installer/pull/128
