Typing ) when there is already a ')' should not eat the character.

[nojvek]

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Type helloWorld(((('hello'))))
2. Put cursor after apostrophe Type helloWorld(((('hello'|))))
3. Type ')', vscode will eat the character.
4. Vscode will eat the next 4 characters. You can add '(' but ')' gets eaten if there is a already a ')'.

It's very weird. When I type something, I want vscode to show it on the editor.

Stop the hungry hippo behaviour please :)

Hello, I would love to help out here. I tried to find folder/file/function where this issue should be fixed, but unfortunately I could not find it. I would appreciate if you would guide me in the right direction.

Duplicate of #34606 or #37315 ?
There is an option "editor.autoClosingBrackets": false that disables this behavior but it also disables auto creating brackets.
Splitting it into 2 options would be nice: one to disable auto creation, another - to disable jumping.
