Research direction
The report provides only the extension-installation log and the generated sharedProcessMain.js stack trace; begin by reproducing the failure in Code - OSS 1.100.2 on Linux. Trace the UnknownError/Internal Code 159 path for vscodevim.vim, then verify that installing the extension completes without the signature-verification error.
