Description
With 0.5.4 DevTools. Doesn't repro with 1.31.4 of the C/C++ extension.
I think the repro requires invoking it on a symbol that occurs in enough files to cause the progress UI to appear.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with 0.5.4 DevTools and the 1.32.0 pre-release by invoking Find All References on a symbol occurring in enough files to show the progress UI; compare with 1.31.4. Done means the affected Find All References progress UIs no longer remain stuck when DevTools invokes the operation.
