Repository: microsoft/vscode (TypeScript) — Bug Fix

Issue:
Some terminal launch config args are double-escaped
Run this launch config

```json
{
    "type": "node",
    "request": "launch",
    "name": "Run",
    "runtimeVersion": "16.4.0",
    "program": "${file}",
    "console": "integratedTerminal",
    "args": [">", "> hello.txt"]
},
```

This creates a file named `\> hello.txt` with a literal backslash, when it should be named `> hello.txt`
