Allow user to change status bar color based on mode

[xconverge]

I am ok opening this now since it is off by default and behind a config flag. We can either wait on it or just release it now and change that single function in the future when vscode changes the way this is done...

fixes #1056

I changed the colors in the readme to be a bit darker vs the ones in the gif

Merging this since it is pretty straight forward and behind a config flag!

Forgot to update the docstring here. 😄

Thanks! Looking out for me :)

You can actually do a more precise type here e.g.

interfcae IStatusBarColors {
    normal: string,
    visual: string,
    // ...
}

[johnfn]

For super mega bonus points you could use TypeScript's mapped types to ENSURE that every mode has a color by mapping from our ModeNames object. Sort of like this:

interface IStatusBarColors { [Key in keyof ModeNames]: string }

Mapped types are awesome.

[xconverge]

ah yes that is a good idea instead of string, string for sure

And the number of plugins we've implemented grows again... 😁

This is almost totally fine. I only have one problem...

YOUR COLOR SCHEME JESUS MAN HOW DO YOU WORK LIKE THAT

[xconverge]

You have never used solarized dark?

Nah I'm on Monokai, which makes my IDE look like Sublime to the untrained eye...

It doesn't work on the latest version of insiders because workbench.experimental.colorCustomizations is not experimental anymore. Now it's just workbench.colorCustomizations.

Also the key names are different:

  "workbench.colorCustomizations": {
    "statusBar.background": "#5fb3b3",
    "statusBar.noFolderBackground": "#5fb3b3",
    "statusBar.debuggingBackground": "#5fb3b3",
  }

I used this

    "vim.statusBarColorControl": true,
    "vim.statusBarColors.normal": ["#8FBCBB", "#434C5E"],
    "vim.statusBarColors.insert": "#BF616A",
    "vim.statusBarColors.visual": "#B48EAD",
    "vim.statusBarColors.visualline": "#B48EAD",
    "vim.statusBarColors.visualblock": "#A3BE8C",
    "vim.statusBarColors.replace": "#D08770",
    "vim.statusBarColors.commandlineinprogress": "#007ACC",
    "vim.statusBarColors.searchinprogressmode": "#007ACC",
    "vim.statusBarColors.easymotionmode": "#007ACC",
    "vim.statusBarColors.easymotioninputmode": "#007ACC",
    "vim.statusBarColors.surroundinputmode": "#007ACC",
