Reproduction steps

1. Start Up VS Code with WSL2 terminal
2. Open a Ruby file
3. ruby-lsp status mentions "Using Ruby undefined with rbenv"
4. Select "Change manual ruby configuration", then select path to ruby binary as directed
5. See the following error pop up in VS Code:

Command failed: \\wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\root\.rbenv\versions\3.3.4\bin\ruby -W0 -rjson -e 'STDERR.print({ env: ENV.to_h, yjit: !!defined?(RubyVM::YJIT), version: RUBY_VERSION }.to_json)'

I've confirmed that the ruby-lsp gem is installed but I've had no luck starting up the lsp. It keeps prompting me to point to the path of the ruby binary I want to use but I continually get the same error above. Any help is much appreciated!

Start by reproducing the reported Ruby executable command in the VS Code, WSL2, Ubuntu, and rbenv setup described in the issue. Trace the Ruby executable discovery and manual configuration path using the reported rubyExecutablePath, then verify that Ruby LSP starts instead of reporting an undefined Ruby version.
