Incorrect execution status for last command run with the PowerShell Extension

Inizia riproducendo la sequenza segnalata di FakeCommand e $? nel terminale VS Code dell’estensione PowerShell, quindi confrontala con PowerShell in Windows Terminal. Il lavoro è completato quando l’estensione segnala $? come False dopo il comando non riconosciuto, in modo coerente con PowerShell autonomo.

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.
• I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
• I have read the troubleshooting guide.
• I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
• I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
• If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

The execution status for the last command is being incorrectly reported in the $? automatic variable when using the PowerShell Extension. While using PowerShell in Visual Studio code, the execution status is reported properly by $?.

As an aside, getting the ExecutionStatus via Get-History | Select Id,ExecutionStatus,CommandLine seems to always report 'Completed' even after encountering a "command not recognized" type of error.

Tagging @SeeminglyScience per his request via the PowerShell community Discord.
