Changing individual flake8 error severity

[xsrvmy]

Flake8's error grouping is still pretty unhelpful these days. Additionally, some of the the warnings are already shown in VSCode through other means (eg. unused variable, undefined variable (via pyright/pylance). It would be nice to be able to override based on the individual rule ID rather than just the category code. Additionally this is needed for better support for additional flake8 extensions.

vscode-eslint has something for this already.

@xsrvmy We are currently working on building tool specific extensions. You can follow this issue to get more details on the flake8 extension. #19094 .

There is a prototype version of flake8 extension here if you want to try: PyCQA/flake8#1467 . Here you can have control over individual error code severity.
