In math preview, \newcommand wrongly parsed when line break before the body of the macro presents

Please fill the following fields with a star (*) and provide as much related information as possible.

Pre-checks*

Please change the following [ ] to [x] for confirmation.

[x] The issue has not been reported in this repository.

[x] The issue remains after disabling all other extensions and restarting Visual Studio Code.

[x] The FAQ cannot address the issue.

[x] The issue is not related to compiling a document, or the document can be successfully compiled in the OS terminal but not in Visual Studio Code with this extension.

Environment*

Operating System: Windows 11, through remote to WSL
Visual Studio Code Version: 1.92.2
LaTeX Workshop Version: v10.5.0
TeX Distribution Version: TeX Live 2024 (via Arch extra repo)

The Issue*

When defining macros with \newcommand like:

\newcommand{\foo}%  <-- line break here
{%
    body%
}

The math preview breaks in several ways. And it behaves differently in panel and in hover preview.

Detailed exampled listed in Reproduction Steps.

Reproduction Steps

Example 1:

\documentclass{article}
\newcommand{\hello}%
{%
    Not hello%
}
\newcommand{\hi}{%
    Not hi%
}
\begin{document}
$\frac a b$
\end{document}

When hovering over the formula $\frac a b$ , the preview is correct.

While, if the math preview panel is enabled via Shift + Ctrl + P -> LaTeX Workshop: Open math preview panel, the preview panel is blank, leaving an output message saying:

[21:52:07.415][Preview][Math] Failed rendering MathJax \newcommand{\hello}
\newcommand{\hi}{%
Not hi%
}
\frac a b{\color{orange}\!\Big\vert\!} . Try removing macro definitions.

Example 2:

\documentclass{article}
\newcommand{\hello}%
{%
    Not hello%
}
\newcommand{\hi}{%
    Not hi%
}
\begin{document}
$a$ 
\end{document}

The preview becomes: Preview in case 2
