Description

This would be useful in situations like https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-azurestaticwebapps/issues/288#issue-796227259:

If you just start typing a folder name here and press enter, it just exits out of the flow. It's not clear that you have to press enter at Manually enter location before entering the location.

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the quick-pick flow for manually entering a location and trace how text-box contents are handled when Enter is pressed. Done means a typed folder name can create a new quick-pick item instead of exiting the flow, with the existing manual-entry behavior preserved.
