Data Viewer/Variable Explorer support for non-array like objects (such as nested dicts) #1138

Description

@jmew

Support for objects in a tree like view, like how you can view objects in debug mode

Ask from one of our users:

"VScode also has an interactive window that opens a Jupyter kernel (separate console/kernel) which displays a subset of variables without the need of debugger.
It turns out that you can directly execute code from the editor in the interactive window’s console (no copy/paste needed), but the variable explorer that it provides is not as powerful (doesn’t give info on objects/classes/methods).
For example, we can’t look at a model object and inspect its components with this method, which has become an important part of our development process.

I guess we could run VScode in debug mode whenever we desire that level of granularity, but it seems like an unnecessary concession when we can get the desired functionality from PyCharm."

Not sure if this is a dup
