> Don't enabled VIRTUAL_THREAD_START/END events unless absolutely necessary. Solves performance issues when trying to debug apps that create a lot of virtual threads. Details in first comment.
>
> With these changes the Skynet benchmark no longer shows any slowdown when launching with debugging enabled or when attaching the debugger.
>
> Tested with all tier2, tier3, tier5, and tier6 CI testing (with filters to only run svc tests).
