Can't create tasks.json when a user-wide tasks.json already exists #140867

Issue Type: Bug

In a workspace without a tasks.json file the option Create tasks.json file from template does not appear if a tasks.json file already exists in the user directory $HOME/.config/Code/User/tasks.json so I can't create a tasks.json file for the current workspace.

Probably due to 18e70eb that only checks when a non-contributed task exists regardless of whether it comes from the user or the workspace.
