VS Code extension - being able to execute "cells" using Cmd+Enter in .coco file

[JakartaLaw]

It is currently not possible to execute cell from .coco file in VS Code.

A cell is defined by:

# %%
"hello" |> print 
# %%

Also, enabling the feature request above, I think, will automatically add the Shift Enter feature which is used in .py files to send a piece of code to the interactive window and run it there.

If not, just a reminder to add that as well.

Found a workaround.
While working on a .coco file, we can still force the editor to treat it as Python file - by hitting Ctrl K M (or by clicking on the language name in the editor towards right at the bottom).

If we do that, we get all these features:

• automatic cell creation with # %%.
• send code to the interactive window using Shift Enter. Just remember to use the Coconut kernel in the interactive window so that coconut-inclusive-code is run successfully there..
• all the usual Python based auto-completion, go-to-definition, find-all-references etc. Remember - all this is otherwise missing while working on a .coco file.

The downside is that syntax will be marked as wrong at the places where coconut specific code is used.
