Research direction
Start by tracing capability negotiation and the breakpoint-setting path in the Java debug server, focusing on the DAP breakpointModes capability. Check how requested suspend modes are represented and honored when breakpoints are set. Done means Suspend VM and Suspend Thread modes are advertised and applied correctly.
