Metals is not starting in vscode

[Aoife Finch]

Describe the bug

Starting with today's pre-release, Metals is not starting when opening a project in vscode. It was working before today's update.

This is what shows in Output > Metals:

Metals version: 1.2.2+41-4ecdb894-SNAPSHOT
Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat '/Users/finchr/.metals/cs'
Release notes was not shown: not showing release notes since they've already been seen for your current version

If I click on "Start Metals", this shows up in Output > Window:

I've stopped bloop and metals processes (running before today's update) and removed .bloop and .metals in the project directory.

Thanks for reporting! Looks like we are not downloading correctly coursier for downloading Java, we should add some kind of fallback in that case. For now you can revert VS Code to the latest stable version.

@kasiaMarek can you take a look?
