Ctrl+C doesn't actually kill running loop in mongosh

      Problem Description

      In the legacy shell, if I run a loop that I need to kill, ctrl+c kills the entire shell. (Not saying this is great behaviour, just as comparison)

      joannac@Joannas-MacBook-Pro ~ % mongo --port 32000
      MongoDB shell version v4.4.5
      ...
      MongoDB server version: 4.4.5
      ...
      replset:PRIMARY> for(i=0; i<500; i++) { sleep(50)}
      ^C%                                                                             
      joannac@Joannas-MacBook-Pro ~ %
      

      In mongosh, ctrl+c gets me back the prompt, but the same loop is still running (but there's no indication it is).

      joannac@Joannas-MacBook-Pro ~ % mongosh --port 32000

      replset [direct: primary]> for(i=0; i<500; i++) { sleep(50)}
      Error: Asynchronous execution was interrupted by `SIGINT`
      replset [direct: primary]> printjson(i)

      replset [direct: primary]> printjson(i)

      Steps to Reproduce

      This is also way more obvious if you actually do something in your loop

      replset [direct: primary]> for(i=0;i<1000;i++){printjson(i);sleep(50)}
      0
      1
      2
      3
      4
      5
      6
      7

      10
      11
      12
      (ctrl-c)
      Error: Asynchronous execution was interrupted by `SIGINT`
      replset [direct: primary]> 13
      14
      15
      16
      17
      18
      19
      20
      21
      22
      23
      24
      
      (ctrl-c)
      (To exit, press Ctrl+C again or Ctrl+D or type .exit)
      replset [direct: primary]> 25
      26
      27
      28
      29
      30
      31
      32
      33
      34
      35
      36
      (ctrl-c)
      

      (I manually inserted (ctrl-c) to show the 3 times I hit ctrl-c

      Expected Results

      When I hit ctrl-c, in addition to whatever is running at the time (probably the sleep()) getting killed, the actual top level function (the for loop) gets killed.

      Or at least, mongosh explains better what it does.

      Actual Results

      Loops continue to run silently in the background. Which means if I write another loop

      for(i=0; i<1000; i++) { //something else}}
      

      That loop starts skipping numbers because there are 2 loops incrementing "i".
