Description

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

- VS Code Version: 1.127.0
- OS Version: Linux x64 7.0.12-100.fc43.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Copy the "csa::get_fdb_table" string to the OS copy/paste buffer.
2. Open VS Code as usual (recently opened workspace is opened automatically).
3. On the left of the screen, click on the Search ("magnifying glass") icon. The Search subwindow opens with previous search text highlighted.
4. Press Ctrl+V.

Expected result:

The "csa::get_fdb_table" string is pasted and workspace' search of that string is performed.

Actual result:

VS Code freezes and, after about 30 seconds, closes.

Notes:
1. All extensions are disabled.
2. See the dump file attached.
3. See the screen recording attached.
