Actual C_Cpp.default.configurationProvider randomly changes

[myocytebd]

Environment

• OS and Version: Linux x64 6.8.0-49-generic (Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS)
• VS Code Version: 1.95.3
• C/C++ Extension Version: v1.22.11
• ms-vscode.makefile-tools: v0.11.13
• mesonbuild.mesonbuild: v1.26.0

Bug Summary and Steps to Reproduce

Bug Summary:
Unexpected C_Cpp.default.configurationProvider modification appear in C/C++: Log Diagnostics, although setting is not modified.
As a result, some files' intellisense is incorrect.

1. My project happens to have a broken meson.build file and valid autotools/makefile.
2. Ensure that C_Cpp.default.configurationProvider is always ms-vscode.makefile-tools.
3. Use vscode and run make/configure.
4. After some time, intellisense of some (newly opened or created) files went wrong.
   Check C/C++: Log Diagnostics and find out that compiler/flags are wrong.
   Further check C/C++: Log Diagnostics and find this:

Modified Settings:
{
    "C_Cpp.default.configurationProvider": "mesonbuild.mesonbuild"
}

5. However, this setting was never changed.
   Check settings and command palette: setting is ms-vscode.makefile-tools.
6. In command palette: set configurationProvider to None then back to ms-vscode.makefile-tools. And the problem seems temporarily fixed:
   Intellisense is back to normal, and mesonbuild.mesonbuild is gone from C/C++: Log Diagnostics.
7. Change makefile-tools version (and restart extension), or reload windows, also have a chance to trigger the unexpected Modified Settings.

Configuration and Logs

`C/C++: Log Diagnostics` is not persistent.  
I don't know the exact condition to reproduce this issue (or if it is random).

Other Extensions

No response

Additional context

Expected Behavior:

• If for some reason, ms-vscode.makefile-tools fails, actual C_Cpp.default.configurationProvider should fallback to None instead of an unpicked provider.
• If actual C_Cpp.default.configurationProvider changed, an error/warning message should be presented to user.
• ms-vscode.makefile-tools should not fail.
