Single step in debugger collapses all variables being watched

[o-lim]

When stepping over an instruction, any expanded variables in the watch window are automatically collapsed, force the user to to expand any variable of interest to view it's contents. This is particularly annoying when you need to observe how a nested variable (2 or more levels deep) is updated across several lines of code.

@o-lim This is a VSCode issue. You will need to raise an issue with the VSCode team at https://github.com/Microsoft/VSCode/issues .

I actually did raise it as a VSCode issue (Microsoft/vscode#25652), but they said it was an extension issue.

@o-lim Thanks. I left a comment there. Hopefully they can help explain what we can do to keep it expanded.

This issue is really annoying, sad to see that after 6 Years there has been no progress.

Seven years and this makes the VSCode debugger pathetically unusable.
