Make panel position configurable
Problem
I just upgraded to VS Code 0.10.8 and I see that the debug console is now at the bottom of the window. I can see how some people might prefer this, but I actually preferred having it on the right side. The position (right/bottom) should be configurable in settings.

Add Configurable Panel Position in VS Code Settings
The recent update to VS Code 0.10.8 has changed the default position of the debug console to the bottom of the window. This change is not configurable through the user settings, leading to user dissatisfaction for those who preferred the previous layout.
