How to reproduce:
1. Open attached project "DebugRepro.zip" and scene "TestDebugger"
2. Make sure that Edit -> Preferences -> External Tools -> External Script Editor is set to Visual Studio Code
3. In Project window, open up "DebugScript" script
4. In Visual Studio Code, put breakpoint on line 12 and start Debugging (hotkey F5)
5. In Unity, enter Play mode
6. In Visual Studio Code, hover over "List" variable, expand "[0..99]" after that expand "[0]"
7. In Visual Studio Code, stop Debug mode
8. In Unity, exit Play mode
9. Observe Unity Editor

Expected result: no errors are thrown, the editor works as expected
Actual result: "StackOverflowException: The requested operation caused a stack overflow." and "ThreadAbortException" are thrown, Unity freezes
