Description
### Brief Issue Summary
When I run `CMake: Configure` using CMake Tools, rules.ninja file is output as utf-8, but the character encoding is shift-jis, so it does not build correctly by ninja.
In Windows 10 Japanese Edition, the standard encoding of the command prompt is shift-jis, so usually I would run `chcp 65001` before running cmake configure.
But CMake Tools does not have a setting to specify the encoding before the running configure.
`"cmake.outputLogEncoding": "utf-8"` does not fix this problem.
I also try to use Terminal Profiles, but I could not solve the problem.

This problem not happened, when I used Visual Studio 2019.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue by running CMake: Configure on Windows 10 Japanese Edition with Visual Studio 2022, then inspect the generated rules.ninja encoding and compare it with Visual Studio 2019. Review how cmake.outputLogEncoding and terminal profiles affect configuration, and consider the work complete when rules.ninja is readable by ninja and the project builds correctly.
