Ignore repos that aren't in one of the workspace folders

Fixes #7896

[Wetmelon]

If I only open subfolders in a worktree, this no longer opens any pull requests associated with the checked-out branch, bricking the entire extension. Is there a setting I can use to disable this behavior? Will roll back to an older version as a workaround.

Think Monorepo with several out-of-tree git worktrees, and I only want to open a few subfolders of one of the worktrees to keep my workspace small.

EDIT: Confirmed that rolling back to older version restores the expected functionality👍

@Wetmelon thanks for pointing this out. Maybe the behavior we need is to show repos that are within one of the workspace folders or contain one of the workspace folders.

@alexr00 yeh I agree with @Wetmelon -- I frequently open a specific package sub-directly, which isn't the root.

Can it not just auto add the git rev-parse --show-toplevel directory into the list to show?

Oh looks like it might be addressed in #8005?

extension is ignoring valid submodules due to this change

[alexr00]

What is the value of your settings git.detectSubmodules and githubPullRequests.ignoreSubmodules?

default values i.e. git.detectSubmodules=true and githubPullRequests.ignoreSubmodules=false
