Exiting tests manually with Ctrl+C in VScode results in an infinitely logging loop

[lihop]

I already added a comment to a Godot engine issue here godotengine/godot#19775 (comment), but this issue affects the Gut VSCode plugin quite badly. When I press Ctrl+C to manually exit the tests, the debugger enters an infinite loop:

This loop will keep running, even after closing VSCode and fills the godot.log file in .local/share/godot/app_userdata/<project>/logs with this message:

Debugger Break, Reason: 'Breakpoint'
*Frame 0 - res://addons/gut/GutScene.gd:82 in function '_process'
Enter "help" for assistance.
debug> 

until the filesystem is 100% full (I found this out the hard way 😝).

When running godot -d in the terminal it only happens when entering Ctrl+D and the infinite logging process exits when you close the terminal. But with the Gut VSCode plugin it is more severe (happens after Ctrl+C and keeps running after VSCode is closed) so I thought I'd better mention it here.

OS: Linux, NixOS 21.11
Gut: 3e36028 (latest commit at time of writing)
gut-extension (vscode plugin): v0.0.5
godot-tools (vscode plugin): v1.1.2

I have created new issue in the Godot repo godotengine/godot#50170, and will close this one as it's not a Gut bug. It turns out VScode was using the Mono build of godot which enters this loop with Ctrl+C.

In the meantime, I have removed -d from additional options in the gut-extension settings and everything runs and exits smoothly.
