Patch configuring the display language

[jsjoeio]

Previously, we supported the ability to configure the Display Language. As a result of switching to VS Code's upstream server, we have lost this feature with the 4.0.0 upgrade.

Does it work upstream?

Apparently, no. If you go to vscode.dev and try to install a language pack, you get the following error messages:

Same with Codespaces

How did it work before in code-server?

I believe we had to patch it to get it to work. We can investigate readding the patch, or even submitting a patch upstream to get this functionality both in code-server and vscode.dev/Codespaces

Didn't mean to close this!

We used to patch this before. @code-asher patched this previously and will push up his patch. That's a good place to look. It will be on his fork here.

Linked above, note that you need to make a full build to test.
