CmdPal: Bookmarking a bat (or other executable) should still launch it #38700

Provide a description of requested docs changes

We should definitely be able to bookmark foo.bat and have that run when opened.

Probably the same for any PATHEXT file.

And if you bookmark foo.bat {param}, we should also pass param from the form to that process.

ps1 starts getting harder, because we probably shouldn't assume powershell vs pwsh. Even if it would be nice. Maybe we can add a checkbox to control which powershell? </>

And things like .py - well, we don't have a shebang on Windows, so that's right out. But we probably should be able to bookmark python foo.py. (that probably deserves its own feature request though)
