bug: The highlighting is inconsistent between vscode and nvim

[xiyaowong]

Did you check docs and existing issues?

• I have read all the vscode-neovim docs
• I have searched the existing issues of vscode-neovim
• I can reproduce the issue with an empty init.vim/init.lua and no other vscode extensions (when applicable)

Neovim version (nvim -v)

0.9.4

Operating system/version

window 11

Describe the bug

I have noticed this issue while using flash.nvim.

VSCode vs NeoVim

Pressing "l" jumps to position "r", while pressing "r" jumps to position "l".

Steps To Reproduce

Install flash.nvim

1. Open file

   
   
   world0
   world1
   world2
   world3
   world3
   world4
   world5
   world6
   world7
   world8
   world9
   worlda
   

2. type gg0/world

Expected Behavior

Highlighting is consistent with nvim.

Debugging found that the grid_line event contained incorrect data. It seems to be a problem with nvim?
