Description

In addition to the leader, could localleader also be supported? This would be benefit to me as I want to map my existing vim keymap to VSCode.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore the current implementation of `<leader>` in the VSCodeVim source code, then implement a similar mechanism for `<localleader>`, ensuring it respects buffer local mappings.
