Entering a backtick in a Typescript file freezes the workspace

[jdhines]

Type: Bug

Had a Typescript file in an Angular project. Was trying to change a regular string to a template string (which uses backticks rather than single quotes) and after I entered a backtick at the beginning of the string, the window became unresponsive. Couldn't navigate, or use the keys within the VS Code window. Opening a new window let me type however.
Went through the extension Bisect, and this was the extension that was singled out.

Extension version: 0.0.5
VS Code version: Code 1.79.2 (695af097c7bd098fbf017ce3ac85e09bbc5dda06, 2023-06-14T08:58:52.392Z)
OS version: Darwin x64 22.4.0
