Debug console inline Copilot chat

[Pezlo01]

Hi,

I would like the debug console to have an inline Copilot chat, similarly to the integrated terminal of the editor inline chat.

That would be helpful in a lot of situations:

• GDB C/C++ debug: it is sometime hard to know which exact GDB command to write in order to properly display the value of a variable.
• Python (and all other interpreted languages): We sometime need to write small / and easy function inside the debug console when stopped at a breakpoint, for example we have a very big array of objects and we want to filter it in a particular way to debug it better, we could just ask Copilot to write a simple function to process the data being debugged.
• ...

I think an inline Copilot chat can be as valuable in the Debug console as in the integrated terminal.
