When a thread reaches a breakpoint at the return address set by `ThreadPlanStepOut`, `ThreadPlanStepOut::ShouldStop()` calls `ThreadPlanShouldStopHere::InvokeShouldStopHereCallback()`, and if it returns `false`, `ThreadPlanShouldStopHere::QueueStepOutFromHerePlan()` is called to queue a new plan to skip the corresponding range. Once the new plan finishes, `ThreadPlanStepOut::ShouldStop()` should recheck the stop condition; however, there is no branch that sets `done` to `true`. Before #<!-- -->126838, the method checked if it had reached a suitable frame. After the patch, the check is only performed at a breakpoint; thus, the execution continues.

This patch causes `ThreadPlanStepOut::ShouldStop()` to recheck the stop condition when `m_step_out_further_plan_sp` completes.
