I think we should just pass the preserveFocus boolean to the options argument here

I can include preserveFocus in the options, but that alone doesn't seem to fix the issue.

Fixes #251241
Tested by running the reproduction steps listed in the issue.
When selecting different stack frames, the editor's focus stays on source if its focus was on source before and it stays on disassembly if its focus was on disassembly before.
When the debugger stops because of an instruction breakpoint or because of an instruction step, the focus will shift to the diassembly, but if different stack frames are inspected afterwards, you get the behavior above.
