Debug Launch with createTemporaryIntegratedConsole does not switch to [TEMP] Powershell Extension Tab

[Hetshu]

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.
• I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
• I have read the troubleshooting guide.
• I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
• I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
• If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

When launching the current powershell file editor tab with F5 or Ctrl+F5 with a launch setting that includes createTemporaryIntegratedConsole : true, then in the preview extension the terminal tab [TEMP] Powershell Extension will be (re-)created, but it will not be switched to. Instead the persistent terminal tab Powershell Extension is shown.

This behavior is erroneous and super irritating, as you may think the script wasn't started at all.

In the released powershell extension the '[TEMP]Powershell Extension' tab is shown instead

Steps to Reproduce

Start a powershell script with F5 or Ctrl+F5

with this launch config

{
            "name": "PS: Current File in Temporary Console",
            "type": "PowerShell",
            "request": "launch",
            "script": "${file}",
            "args": [],
            "cwd": "${file}",
            "createTemporaryIntegratedConsole": true
        },

Watch what Terminal tab is active.

The [TEMP] Powershell Extension tab should be active in the terminan pane, but it is not.

Hi @Hetshu! I think we just got this fixed in the PowerShell Preview for VS Code. Could you verify if this issue still reproduces using the preview extension?

@andschwa It works fine in Preview Extension v2022.10.2. Thanks.
