Description

Previously I could focus the Explorer (cmd+shift+e) and type / to open up a fuzzy search. From there I could enter letters for the file/folder I was looking for to see it highlighted.
To Reproduce

- Press
/ - Attempt to search for file/folder
Expected behavior
The expected behavior is to allow / to trigger searching within the Explorer

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in the VSCode Explorer using cmd+shift+e, then press / and try searching for a file or folder. Trace the VSCodeVim handling for this Explorer interaction and compare it with the reported VSCode 1.77.3 and extension 1.25.2 behavior. Done means / again opens Explorer fuzzy search and typed names are highlighted.
