Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.

- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by tracing how the VS Code C/C++ extension represents and sends breakpoints to LLDB, then compare that flow with the linked LLDB column-breakpoint references. Done means column breakpoints can be created and honored reliably in the extension.
