Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Coming from vim, I find that the standard spell-check actions do not exist (]s and [s to move to next/prev spelling error. z= to show a suggestion list. 1z= to automatically apply the first word from the suggestion. zg to mark the word as good. zw to mark the word as bad
Describe the solution you'd like
Implement the standard vim spell features. Configurable through set spell and set spelllang. Or somehow play nicely with an existing vscode spell extension from the marketplace to implement these vim-specific spell-related functionality.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the requested Vim spell-check keys (]s, [s, z=, 1z=, zg, and zw) and the proposed set spell and set spelllang settings. Determine whether VS Code Vim should implement these behaviors directly or integrate with a marketplace spell-check extension; done means the requested commands and configuration work together.
