Lua Remote DeBugger for Visual Studio Code
Fork changes
This fork is modified to use absolute paths from LRDB debugger instead of relative.
It also defines new launch.json property - sourceFileMap for translating
remote paths to local and vice-versa.
This fork works only with similarly modified LRDB - kapecp/LRDB.
