.shopify/metafields.json is always created when a project is opened on VSCode

[msev]

Describe the bug
I have several Shopify projects on my Mac.
When I open any of these projects on VSCode, the file .shopify/metafields.json is created at the root of the project.
This file contains the metafield definitions of another project, not the one currently open.

In addition, the file is added to the project root, whereas I use the following structure:

project-name/

.shopify/metafields.json <- wrong file created automatically
/styles
/scripts
/theme

.shopify/metafields.json <- good file created with the shopify theme metafields pull command
.shopifyignore
/assets
/sections
/snippets
...
shopify.theme.toml

package.json
...

The file is therefore not added where it should be; it should be added in the /theme folder.

If I deactivate the Shopify Liquid extension, the problem no longer occurs: the .shopify/metafields.json file is not created automatically.

Expected behaviour
The .shopify/metafields.json file should not be created automatically.

Actual behaviour
The .shopify/metafields.json file is created automatically.

Looks like we should be "surer" that we're at the root of a theme yep. Thanks for reporting!
