Description
I would be nice if there was an option to preselect a process name for "${command:pickProcess}", I'm always attaching to the same process and it would be good to not have to type the process name every time

Research direction
Start by tracing the ${command:pickProcess} command through the extension's debugger process-selection entry point. Done means users can configure a process name that is preselected when attaching, without retyping it each time; verify the existing process-picking behavior still works.
