Description
Issue Type: Bug
I have this key binding in my config:
"vim.insertModeKeyBindings": [
{
"before": [
"<C-v>",
"tab"
],
"commands": [
{
"command": "type",
"args": "\t"
}
]
}
],
It doesn't work. When I'm in insert mode and I press Ctrl+v, I always paste.
I have tried setting vim.handleKeys with "<C-v>" set to both true and false, and neither make any difference.

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the vim.insertModeKeyBindings and vim.handleKeys configuration with Ctrl-v in the reported VS Code and extension versions, then trace the extension's keybinding handling; done means Ctrl-v reaches the configured binding instead of always pasting.
