Launching BAT for UTF-8 fix is incompatible with Security Policies disallowing BAT execution. #646

Description

Strict IT policy forbids the execution of BAT files in our environment. Fix #625 is breaking debug, due to policy restrictions, and I've had to rollback to v0.20.0

Is there a way to address the UTF-8 issues in #524, #622, #618 without using a launcher.bat execution? Or at minimum, make it optional?

Environment
  • Operating System: Windows 10 Enterprise 1709
  • JDK version: 1.8.0_222
  • Visual Studio Code version: 1.37.1 (also impacts 1.37.0)
  • Java extension version: 0.7.1
  • Java Debugger extension version: 0.21.0
Steps To Reproduce
  1. Configure network policy to forbid execution of .BAT files.
  2. Try to start debugger from VSCode for any Java project.
