Description

When trying to invoke vscode.authentication.getSession with the 'microsoft' providerId, a time out error occurs:

"Timed out waiting for authentication provider 'microsoft' to register."

Hoping this is just a config option I missed on my end

Research direction

Start by reproducing the timeout at vscode.authentication.getSession with providerId 'microsoft' in the VS Code web extension test setup. Trace how authentication providers are registered and identify the configuration or registration gap; done means the Microsoft provider is available and the call no longer times out.
