Title:
Oh-My-Posh font not rendering in code-server terminal after setting terminal.integrated.fontFamily to "MesloLGM Nerd Font"

Description:
After updating the settings.json configuration in code-server to use the "MesloLGM Nerd Font" for the integrated terminal, the Oh-My-Posh font is not rendering correctly. The terminal displays fallback characters or incorrect symbols instead of the expected Oh-My-Posh glyphs.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install code-server and ensure Oh-My-Posh is configured in the shell (e.g., .bashrc, .zshrc).
  2. Add the following setting to settings.json: 
    "terminal.integrated.fontFamily": "MesloLGM Nerd Font"
  3. Restart code-server and open the integrated terminal.
  4. Observe that the Oh-My-Posh font is not rendering correctly.

Expected Behavior:
The terminal should correctly render the Oh-My-Posh font using "MesloLGM Nerd Font" as specified in the configuration.

Actual Behavior:

  2. then install the font oh-my-posh font install meslo

Seems fair to call this a duplicate of #1374


I looked around to see if the issue has been reported upstream.  microsoft/vscode#83294 is the closest I could find, but technically it is about a different issue.  There is discussion here but not much: https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/42740
