fix(lib/vscode): remove native-keymap and keytar (#2961)
native-keymap and keytar are only used in the electron process,
so we don't need them. This allows us to drop our dependencies on
libx11-dev, libxkbfile-dev, and libsecret-dev.

_Note: the Node.js version requirements are based on the VS Code Node.js requirements. See [here](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#prerequisites)._
