Issue Description

Cmdlet.WriteProgress() fails infrequently during long running cmdlets, potentially resulting in hours of lost CPU time due to unexpected script failure. This appears to be some type of VS Code-PowerShell 7 integration issue that's new since January but so far I've been unable to identify a reliable repro. The call to WriteProgress() itself has been stable in our cmdlet code for about a year, though the data given to it does change from run to run.

Expected Behaviour

Cmdlet.WriteProgress() succeeds.
