Description
### Brief Issue Summary
Add files do not trigger re-configurate with glob & `CONFIGURE_DEPENDS` flag
For my buildscript:
```cmake
file(GLOB_RECURSE CORE_SOURCES CONFIGURE_DEPENDS SOURCES "Core/*.*")
```
What I expected is to re-configurate automatically when I add some files under `Core/` directory.
While `cmake --build` actually does the re-configuration, it still makes IntelliSense run into mistakes as it re-configurates too late.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the provided file(GLOB_RECURSE ... CONFIGURE_DEPENDS ...) example and an added file under Core/. Trace how CMake Tools detects file changes and schedules reconfiguration relative to IntelliSense; done means adding a file triggers configuration before IntelliSense uses the stale project state.
