[lldb-vscode] Show a fake child with the raw value of synthetic types (#65552)

Currently, if the user wants to inspect the raw version of a synthetic
variable, they have to go to the debug console and type `frame var
<variable>`, which is not a great experience. Taking inspiration from
CodeLLDB, this adds a `[raw]` child to every synthetic variable so that
this kind of inspection can be done visually.

Some examples:
