Description

Same task can be attached over and over again, producing multiple terminal widgets.
Since we disallow running identical tasks in parallel (#5269), we should not open more than one terminal widget when the same task is attached for a second time.

Reproduction Steps

  1. Open workspace, start a long running task
  2. open a another tab pointing to the same workspace.
  3. While the task started in Step 1 is still running, do Terminal -> Attach Task from the browser opened in Step 2.
  4. Repeat Step 3 multiple times. Theia creates a new terminal widget every time.

I believe what we could do is setting focus to the terminal widget where that attached task is running, and messaging the user.

- Same task can be attached over and over again, producing multiple terminal widgets. With this change, Theia sets focus to the teminal widget that the to-be-attached task is running from. If such terminal widget is not found, Theia creates a new terminal widget for the attached task.

- fixes #7407
