Research direction

Open episodes/24-diagnosing-issues-improving-robustness.md at the linked line around 304 and review the surrounding IDE-dependent section. Move the breakpoint instruction there and distinguish the click location for PyCharm and VSCode. Done means the lesson accurately describes both editors without implying they use the same location.

Description

https://github.com/carpentries-incubator/python-intermediate-development/blob/3035eaf7d63720b310eba097da9b7dffb7ee1309/episodes/24-diagnosing-issues-improving-robustness.md?plain=1#L304

To set a breakpoint in PyCharm you click to the right of the line number, but in VSCode it is to the left of the line number, so this sentence needs to be moved into the IDE-dependent section and modified accordingly.
