LOG: [lldb-dap] Fix Markdown tables in README.md
The markdown tables in the README aren't getting rendered correctly on
the LLDB-DAP page in the Visual Studio arketplace [1]. This is a
somewhat speculative fix as the table itself appears to be correct. Even
if this change doesn't fix it, the new formatting significantly improves
the readability.

This binary is not packaged with the VS Code extension.
There are multiple ways to obtain this binary:
-* use the binary provided by your toolchain (for example `xcrun -f lldb-dap` on macOS) or contact your toolchain vendor to include it.
-* download one of the relase packages from the [LLVM release page](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/releases/). The `LLVM-19.1.0-{operating_system}.tar.xz` packages contain a prebuilt `lldb-dap` binary.

Alternatively, you can explictly specify the location of the `lldb-dap` binary using the `lldb-dap.executable-path` setting.

For both launch and attach configurations, lldb-dap accepts the following `lldb-dap`
specific key/value pairs:
-|parameter |type|req | |
-|-------------------|----|:--:|---------|
-|**name** |string|Y| A configuration name that will be displayed in the IDE.
-|**type** |string|Y| Must be "lldb-dap".
-|**request** |string|Y| Must be "launch" or "attach".
-|**program** |string|Y| Path to the executable to launch.
-|**sourcePath** |string| | Specify a source path to remap \"./\" to allow full paths to be used when setting breakpoints in binaries that have relative source paths.
-|**sourceMap** |[string[2]]| | Specify an array of path re-mappings. Each element in the array must be a two element array containing a source and destination pathname. Overrides sourcePath.
-|**debuggerRoot** | string| |Specify a working directory to use when launching lldb-dap. If the debug information in your executable contains relative paths, this option can be used so that `lldb-dap` can find source files and object files that have relative paths.
-|**commandEscapePrefix** | string | | The escape prefix to use for executing regular LLDB commands in the Debug Console, instead of printing variables. Defaults to a backtick. If it's an empty string, then all expression in the Debug Console are treated as regular LLDB commands.
-|**customFrameFormat** | string | | If non-empty, stack frames will have descriptions generated based on the provided format. See https://lldb.llvm.org/use/formatting.html for an explanation on format strings for frames. If the format string contains errors, an error message will be displayed on the Debug Console and the default frame names will be used. This might come with a performance cost because debug information might need to be processed to generate the description.
-|**customThreadFormat** | string | | Same as `customFrameFormat`, but for threads instead of stack frames.
-|**displayExtendedBacktrace**|bool| | Enable language specific extended backtraces.
-|**enableAutoVariableSummaries**|bool| | Enable auto generated summaries for variables when no summaries exist for a given type. This feature can cause performance delays in large projects when viewing variables.
-|**enableSyntheticChildDebugging**|bool| | If a variable is displayed using a synthetic children, also display the actual contents of the variable at the end under a [raw] entry. This is useful when creating sythetic child plug-ins as it lets you see the actual contents of the variable.
-|**initCommands** |[string]| | LLDB commands executed upon debugger startup prior to creating the LLDB target.
-|**preRunCommands** |[string]| | LLDB commands executed just before launching/attaching, after the LLDB target has been created.
-|**stopCommands** |[string]| | LLDB commands executed just after each stop.
-|**exitCommands** |[string]| | LLDB commands executed when the program exits.
