Description

mypy is extremely slow on windows. it would be nice if there was some sort of indication to show when it's still running, like it does with the formatters:

The issue names no files or tests; start by locating the extension's mypy execution path and the existing formatter progress indication referenced in the screenshots. Define done as a visible indication while mypy is still running, particularly on Windows, and verify the behavior during a slow run.
