Description

The tsconfig file format is now recommended to be 2.0.0 and with it come new rules for the file format. I have this content working for me for the task definition: "label": "tsc-watch", "isBackground": true, "type": "typescript", tsconfig": "src/tsconfig.json", "option": "watch", "problemMatcher": [ "$tsc-watch" ]

Research direction
Update the tsconfig.json files in the repository to version 2.0.0 format, specifically the .vscode/tasks.json entry for tsc watch as shown in the issue body. Ensure the new rules for file format are applied, and verify that the TypeScript compiler watch mode works correctly with the updated config.
