Description
It's not stopping on main. and it doesn't hit any of my breakpoints.
It stops when an exception is thrown, or if I call Debugger.Break(), though.
I'm using the version included in the docker tools, and i have the latest clrdbg.
i tried passing the --pauseForDebugger flag, but it just hangs VS during launch.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the launch with Debug.MIDebugLaunch using the Docker Tools version and latest clrdbg. Compare behavior at main, configured breakpoints, exceptions, and Debugger.Break(), including the --pauseForDebugger case. Done means launch stops at main and user breakpoints without hanging Visual Studio.
