Adding to a dictionary containing custom classes fails

[OtterKring]

Prerequisites

• I have written a descriptive issue title.
• I have searched all open and closed issues to ensure it has not already been reported.
• I have read the troubleshooting guide.
• I am sure this issue is with the extension itself and does not reproduce in a standalone PowerShell instance.
• I have verified that I am using the latest version of Visual Studio Code and the PowerShell extension.
• If this is a security issue, I have read the security issue reporting guidance.

Summary

I created the following class:

    class MailboxTypeStatistics {
        [string] $Type
        [UInt32] $Count = 0
        [UInt64] $Size = 0

        MailboxTypeStatistics ( [string] $Type ) {
            $this.Type = $Type
        }

        [void] Update ( [string] $TotalItemSize ) {
            $this.Count++
            $this.Size += [uint64]( $TotalItemSize.ToString().Split('(')[1] -replace '\D+' )
        }
    }

then created a generic dictionary:

$dir = [System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[string,mailboxtypestatistics]]::new()

then I tried adding a key like this:

$dir.Add('UserMailbox',[MailboxTypeStatistics]::new('UserMailbox'))

and received the following error message in the VSCode Powershell Extension Console:

MethodException: Cannot find an overload for "Add" and the argument count: "2".

I tested in the standard console (Windows Terminal) and it worked without issues.
