Research direction
Start by tracing how Makefile commands produce output and how the VS Code output pane is selected. Confirm the desired behavior by running a command that emits output: the Makefile Tools output view should open automatically without manual navigation.

Description
Brief Issue Summary
It's annoying needing to open the output pane and navigate to makefile tools in the dropdown every time. When running makefile commands that give output, I think the output should automatically be opened.
