Description
Describe the bug
(Edited after some more experimentation with the plugin)
Plugin no longer picks any changes to the plugin's settings, be it new keybinding (or changes to existing ones), setting on/off the control of the status bar colorization, change status bar colorization colors... nothing.
It's stuck on settings from, I don't know when and won't pick up new ones.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Make any change to the plugin's settings (e.g. create or modify keybindings, change control of the status bar, change status bar's colors according to specific modes, turn on/off easymotion and/or surround, etc.)
- Save and try to make changes work (or in case of status bar changes, simply monitor the status bar)
Expected behavior
Changes to settings are picked up and the plugin works accordingly.
Screenshots
N/A
Environment (please complete the following information):
- Extension (VsCodeVim) version: 1.11.0 (also didn't matter downgrading to 1.10.2 and 1.10.0)
- VSCode version: 1.39.0 (started experiencing this on 1.38.1)
- OS: (After some experiments) both Windows and Linux Debian

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in VS Code 1.38.1 or 1.39.0 using the listed settings changes, including keybindings and status-bar colors, on Windows or Debian. Trace how the extension observes and applies setting changes; done means new settings take effect without requiring an unspecified workaround.
