Description
- Extension (VsCodeVim) version: 1.24.3
- VSCode version: 1.73.1
- OS: Window11
The cursor will not change to insert mode after using the command prefixed with "c", such as "ci<", and the prompt in the status bar will not switch to insert mode. But in fact, it has already entered the insertion mode, and the cursor and status bar will start to change only after entering any character

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in VSCodeVim 1.24.3 on VS Code 1.73.1 using a change command such as "ci<" and observe the cursor and status bar before and after typing a character. Trace the change-command path and the transition into insert mode; done means the cursor and status bar update immediately when the command enters insert mode.
