Using ${command:cmake.selectConfigurePreset} in tasks.json pops up error when selecting already active configuration

[FredC-LT]

Brief Issue Summary

Hi,

I have a vscode task that I use to change the current configuration preset:

{
    "label": "set active config",
    "group": "build",
    "command": "${command:cmake.selectConfigurePreset}"
}

I can toggle without issues between configurations Release, Debug. The issue arises when I select the already active configuration, then I get this error:
Cannot substitute command variable 'cmake.selectConfigurePreset' because command did not return a result of type string.

How to reproduce

1. Run the task, select "X" configuration
2. Run the task again, select the same "X" configuration
