[Bug]: Running issues in debug does not work and ends up in multiple different situations.

[KennySporck]

Version

1.1.1

Steps to reproduce

1. Install playwright for VS code version 1.1.1 extension.
   Either:
2. Go to the text explorer or file explorer
3. Run a test in debug via right-mouse button and 'Debug test'
   OR
4. Go to the terminal
5. Enter the following command: npx playwright test 'testfile' --debug

Expected behavior

The test starts and runs in debug and breaks on breakpoints.

Actual behavior

Test runs from test explorer:
The session does not start and the test indicaties a start-up spinner animation in the test explorer.
It is also not possible to stop the test from being initiated and the user is forced to restart VS Code.

Test runs via terminal:
The session starts but breaks on the beforeEach section of the test. The user can manually resume the test by pressing resume in the debug window.

Additional context

A roll back to version 1.0.22 resolved the issue.
Since i did not know at first hand that playwright was updated, I tried several things that did not resolve the issue:

• Reinstall playwright
• Reinstall VSCode

Environment

Playwright 1.1.1

Might be the same as #30743 - if its about debugging ends up in a hang / stall.
