## Message

```
Don't probe for local workspaces pointing to WSL filesystem on startup (#40142)

We automatically delete a local workspace if the folders comprising it
no longer exist.
If a local workspace points to folders in the WSL filesystem, checking
whether those folders exist will make us wait for the WSL VM and file
server to boot up. This can block Zed startup for many seconds.

Supported scenarios use remote workspaces, so delete these local
workspaces to ensure that we don't try to access their folders on the
startup path.

Release Notes:

- N/A
```
