Review comment:
       So I think this should be renamed maybe `Running Debugger Server` to 
take it clear it is referring to how the debug server will be started up. So 
for "debugging extension locally" I am referring to running the extension in 
VSCode instead of using a VSIX file.
   
   This section is just referring to how the debug server is started so 
basically it just says the extension will handle it on its own but maybe should 
just like the directory that scripts to run the debug server are at if 
interested in running it manually instead of just by automatically.
