gdb: variables ui breaks after expanding locals

[Arcturuss]

When expanding some structs while debugging C++ with GDB, the debugger UI on bottom panel disappears and never reappears again. Only debugger console is shown on the panel then. Closing and reopening debugger doesn't work.

Windows 10, latest versions of ST4 and Debugger from package control.

There is error in the 'show protocol' window:

Just based on the stack trace it looks like they are sending an array for a variables value which isn't allowed it should be a string.

Yeah this looks like an issue with the adapter that they will need to fix.

Here is the relevant bug report WebFreak001/code-debug#413
