Need an options to restore Solution Explorer project hierarchy state on solution load.
It is very inconvenient to open the project every time and expand the necessary folders.

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior with VS Code 1.81.1 and C# Dev Kit 0.4.5 by loading a solution with expanded projects and folders. Inspect how the Solution Explorer state is handled during solution load; done means the project hierarchy is restored without manually reopening and expanding projects.
