[Never mind] VSCode extension v1.9.1 is slooooowww

For some reason, my whole setup just stopped working, presumably because of the v1.9.1 update. Finally, by installing idf-component-manager and esp-idf-kconfig (why did they disappear, I have no idea), and also setting up python-env for python 3.8 (which also disappeared), I finally got the extension to work again.

Kind of.

Now, everything takes ENORMOUS amount of time. Clicking the build icon, I have to wait maybe 5 minutes before anything happens. The IDE just sits there, 5 minutes, doing nothing, and then suddenly the build starts.

I mean WTF??

Found the problem, and it had nothing to do with VSCode or the extension.
