This adds the option to use VSCode Insiders default configuration without setting the environment variables

Could you explain why the added complexity to the code and API is justified, over just the solution in #39 .

using environment isn't user friendly in my opinion
plus i don't think the average user knows where VSCode keeps its configurations

Another problem is we don't want users doing sshcode --insiders all the time. I agree that environment variables by themselves aren't friendly to the average user, but I also explain how to configure for VS Code Insiders on the README. I think that's good enough education on how to do this.

I can agree with that, i do believe that you could use 1 variable instead of 2
