Description

On my system, I installed a version of python using pyenv. The version of python is compiled by pyenv from source against libraries in the system, as normal

Visual Studio code cannot find this version of python. Looking at the logs I see:

```
Error 2020-08-19 01:13:50: Failed to get interpreter information for '/home/valmar/.pyenv/versions/om-py3/bin/python3' [Error: Command failed: "/home/valmar/.pyenv/versions/om-py3/bin/python3" "/home/valmar/.var/app/com.visualstudio.code/data/vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2020.8.101144/pythonFiles/pyvsc-run-isolated.py" "/home/valmar/.var/app/com.visualstudio.code/data/vscode/extensions/ms-python.python-2020.8.101144/pythonFiles/interpreterInfo.py"
/home/valmar/.pyenv/versions/om-py3/bin/python3: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
```

libcrypt is installed in my system, but no in the Flatpak. Pyenv is quite a commonly used program. Would it be possible please to install the library in the flatpak?
