What it does

Fixes #9712 by checking whether the file found is a default config file (settings.json) before modifying it when adding debug configurations.

How to test

  1. In an otherwise empty folder, create a .theia folder and populate it with a settings.json that includes a `"launch" field. Something like this:
{
  "launch": {
    // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
    // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": []
  },
  "editor.fontSize": 20
}
  1. Open that folder in Theia.
  2. Open the debug view, open the dropdown and select 'Add configurations'
  3. It should open your settings.json and put you in the middle of the array, but it should not remove your "editor.fontSize" setting.
