Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when I am making a vim keybinding and have to figure out what the exact editor.action thing to put in the commands array.
Describe the solution you'd like
As I start typing the "commands": ["edi..."], I would like it to grab the list of all possible commands and autocomplete it for me
Describe alternatives you've considered
Pressing ⌘K+⌘S, right-clicking which one I want and selecting Copy Command ID, and paste it in the commands array.

Research direction
Start with the VS Code vim.*KeyBindings setting and its commands array, then trace how command IDs are discovered for the ⌘K+⌘S and Copy Command ID workflow. Done means typing an editor.action prefix in that array offers the available commands as autocomplete.
