Tests
Peformed manual testing on Windows 11, Linux in WSL and MacOS.
The shell is correctly reported and scripts that are created are optimized for the platform and shell.
It's assumed that the extension is installed on the extension host for the platform. For example on Windows 11, I tested using the extension installed in WSL as a remote extension with VSCode running on windows and the shell is reported as bash, running on Linux.
Summary by cubic
The terminal command tool now detects the current OS, platform architecture, and default shell to optimize commands and scripts. This helps ensure commands run correctly across different environments.
