Sort Imports command not following PEP8 strictly

[everspader]

• VS Code Version: 1.56.0
• OS Version: Ubuntu 20.04

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Write any script that has standard library imports, third-party imports, and your local packages imports.
2. Right-click in the script and select Sort Imports

Let's say I write the following imports when creating a Django app.

import os
import functools
from rest_framework import viewsets
from django.db import models
from myapp.models import Upload

After I run the Sort Imports command, the output is:

import functools
import os

from django.db import models
from myapp.models import Upload
from rest_framework import viewsets

This means VSCode is sorting the third-party imports together with my local app imports alphabetically. However, according to the imports section on PEP8, there should be a blank line between:

1. Standard library imports.
2. Related third-party imports.
3. Local application/library-specific imports.

Therefore, the desired output would be:

import functools
import os

from django.db import models
from rest_framework import viewsets

from myapp.models import Upload

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
