Description
Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes
- VS Code Version: 1.123.1
- OS Version: Windows 11 Pro
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make a file URI, like `file-uri:line:column`, appear in the Debug Console
2. Try to click it; see that nothing happens
I think VS Code should support this pattern, as it is really simple and adds better DevExp.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the problem in the Debug Console on Windows 11 with a file URI containing a drive letter, line, and column. Trace the Debug Console's clickable file-link handling; done means clicking the link opens the referenced file at the specified location.
