Description

Would be nice to have wildcard support for remote.SSH.serverInstallPath setting. I have a use case with ssh config:

Host server
  HostName server.com
  User user

Host server*
  HostName %h
  ProxyJump server
  User user

Adding config directive to settings.json:

    "remote.SSH.serverInstallPath": {
        "server*": "/the/path/to/server/install/.vscode"
    },

Has no effect currently and it gets installed in remote home directory...
