Feature Request: Override next line to execute when debugging

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.
• I have searched all issues to ensure it has not already been reported.

Summary

While debugging a PowerShell script step by step I would like to be able to choose the next line of code to execute on the fly. For example, an if statement might be incorrect and the code starts executing the wrong branch. Being able to switch the next exection line to the alternate branch (without the need to restart the entire debug session from scratch) can save a lot of time and agravation. Visual studio C++ and C# debugger have this very usefull feature.

Thanks for your submission!

This functionality would need to exist in https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell for us to support it, I suggest you re-file this issue there!

Pester Tests, conditional expression breakpoints, and dependent breakpoints are also an excellent way to test multiple different code paths or an individual item in a loop.
