The Python extension does not suggest virtual environments from pyenv

[MattisTrygstad]

Environment data

• VS Code version: 1.53.2
• Extension version (available under the Extensions sidebar): v2021.2.576481509
• OS and version: MacOS 10.14.5
• Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): 3.8.6
• Type of virtual environment used (N/A | venv | virtualenv | conda | ...): pyenv virtualenv
• Relevant/affected Python packages and their versions: N/A
• Relevant/affected Python-related VS Code extensions and their versions: N/A
• Value of the python.languageServer setting: Pylance

Expected behaviour

All environments created using pyenv virtualenv are listed as options when selecting interpreter.

Actual behaviour

Only system installations and the pyenv installations of Python 3.8.6 is suggested, not any of the virtual environments created. I have tried reinstalling VS Code, the Python extension, as well as pyenv and virtualenv (using homebrew). The .pyenv folder is located at /Users/username/.pyenv. This has never been an issue for me before today.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install VS Code 1.53.2
2. Install Python and Pylance extensions
3. Install pyenv and virtualenv using homebrew
4. Install Python 3.8.6 with pyenv
5. Create a new enironment using pyenv virtualenv
6. Restart VS Code
7. The created environment is not suggested when selecting an interpreter

I am having the opposite problem on windows 10 with WSL 2, using visual studio code insiders.

I finally set up pyenv so that pyenv shims come first in the path, and added a symlink so that python in usr/bin/python points to usr/bin/python3 and thus system python is available when running pyenv versions.

Now, however, in visual studio code insiders, the system python doesn't show up as an available interpreter (which I would imagine should be found automatically in usr/bin/python. I can add it manually though, but it doesn't persist beyond one session. Should I be making another issue for this?
