Support custom Esc mapping from dconf

[Ddedalus]

Hi, thanks for a great extension!
I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 and found it useful in VIM to map Escape to CapsLock system wide. One does so by modifying dconf:
/org/gnome/desktop/input-sources/xkb-options : 'caps:escape'
This works fine in other apps like RStudio but not in VSCode. Do you have any idea whether it can be supported either through your extension or through the editor config?

Any clues on this appreciated.

Hi @Ddedalus,

Thanks for using amVim.

I think this is rather a VSCode issue. The best you can do is to add a keybinding like this:

{ "key": "capslock", "command": "amVim.escape", "when": "editorTextFocus" }

But this still triggers CapsLock.

See microsoft/vscode#23991 for more.
