This PR creates a new dropdown to check the application once for updates on launch and doesn't check again any further than that.

Sometimes I work on VPN networks where external endpoints are inaccessible. With the current option, default, it will sometimes hang on VPN connections.

We only have the options of default, manual, and none. I don't want to completely turn off updates and I might forget to check every so often for updates.

Several applications have this "check for updates on launch" feature so I thought it would be handy for VSCode.

Fixes #72319

Coincidence?

I'll change it to still check after 30 seconds, but only once. Thanks!
