[vscode] Stub for proposed API: EditSessionIdentityProvider (#12508)

* [vscode] Stub for proposed API: EditSessionIdentityProvider

EditSessionIdentityProvider is a new proposed API. As of 1.72.2
it's only used in built-in git (vscode.git).

This commit adds a stub implementation, sufficient to use
vscode.git 1.72.2 and hopefully later versions, if we need
it to. The eventual goal is to implement this API with a
working implementation.

Fixes #12437
