Virtual environments not found

[mgeorge-is]

Type: Bug

Behaviour

Hatch virtual environments are not displayed when using the command palette Python: Select Interpreter (or similarly when using the Jupyter extensions Select Kernel option).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Update the VS Code python extension to 2024.18.0 or later.
2. Using hatch env create, create multiple virtual environments. By default they are placed in the .hatch directory of the workspace root.
3. Open command palette Python: Select Interpreter (or Jupyter extension Select Kernel) and local environments will not be listed.
4. Revert VS Code python extension to 2024.16.1 and restart and the environments are displayed as expected.

Diagnostic data
