Research direction

The issue names the cppvsdbg launch configuration and the VS Code and C/C++ extension versions, but no files or tests. First reproduce a conditional breakpoint or log point with that configuration and compare it with a normal breakpoint. Done means those breakpoint types no longer halt execution as normal breakpoints do.
