Description

Now that we have the project feature, a use case is that we load multiple files into the project and put breakpoints on different modules. In that case, the debugger should be able to set all relevant breakpoints.

Research direction

Start by reading the project's existing project and breakpoint-handling entry points, then trace how breakpoints are associated with loaded files and modules. Verify the behavior with a project containing multiple files and breakpoints in different modules; done means all relevant breakpoints are set when debugging the project.
