can the output folder functionality be made a permanent feature of vscode-arduino?
i.e. this should have a user selectable folder in the project folder

#477
#477 (comment)

the reason is that doing a 'verify' does a build and the temporary folder is deleted after verify runs. but what is really wanted when user click 'verify' is we need the generated installable binary file. and the generated outputs and binary is 'missing' after the built / verify as they are deleted

this is a very bad practice (of using temporary folders for output). arduino sketches are getting pretty large (some are full blown apps) and take significant system effort to compile. compiles can run as long as minutes in fact just like how a c/c++ project is compiled.incremental build like how make and makefile works should be the norm
