Actual behavior

dict objects display in wrong order in the debug console.

Example:

Python 3.7 preserves dictionary order using insertion order, but VSCode seems to pick some other ordering when returning a dict result to the console (perhaps sorted by key?).

Expected behavior

Display elements in debug console in the order in which they are internally stored by Python:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start a debug session
2. Create a dictionary with more than one key:value pair
3. Return the dictionary to console
