CDT-LSP Editor smart caret issue at line start #611

Description

@Platypus123

Using the "Home" key normally should toggle the cursor between the very start of current line / start of indented text on the curent line, but I find it initially works when I open eclipse but after minimal editing of a file, it then only sends cursor to full start of the line (usually not what I want).

E.g. make a new managed build c++ hello world project. Fine, it works as expected. Add a line of error code. Now it only goes to full start of line. Even after error line corrected. It works properly again upon restarting eclipse. But then is just as easily "broken" again.
