Description
I often use the gt command to switch between tabs. When I have a large number of file tabs, I can't determine exactly which tab I want to navigate past. It would be useful if I could display the tab index through some plugin like vim. I have learned that vscode does not think it is necessary to add tab index, so I would like to ask vscodevim if it is convenient to add TAB index.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing gt command and how VSCodeVim interacts with VS Code's tab UI. Determine whether a tab index can be exposed, then define the expected display and navigation behavior; done means users can identify tab positions while switching between tabs.
