[Suggestion] Auto Record feature

[damsdev1]

This feature would allow the recording to be triggered automatically when an activity is detected on VSCode (recording, saving files, debugging, etc), and if after a certain time in seconds (customizable) no activity is detected on VSCode, we stop the recording. (Like Wakatime do https://github.com/wakatime/vscode-wakatime/blob/master/src/wakatime.ts)

This new feature could be activated per project (folder) with a command, or globally, maybe.

Definitely an interesting thought. Start/Stop can be a little tricky to narrow down apart from specific scenarios (like running a program or starting a debug session). Starting with listening to debug/run sessions should be doable. The tricky part is figuring out how to configure the behavior on a per execution target basis

Hey @damsdev1, took a look at the PR. Hooking into debug start/stop should be easy enough, the challenge will be determining when the user is expecting that behavior and how to express that. I'm contemplating adding a field to the Launch Config to indicate if a recording session should be created.

The other option is to automatically detect the start, and then with a one-time request, ask if future runs of the launch target should produce recordings.

Sounds good, just need to add to that a command to activate/deactivate by workspace, and I think that would be nice.
