Add setting for minimap on active editor only (#31390)

Release Notes:

- Add a setting to show the minimap only on the current active editor
(file)
- This can be configured on `settings.json`: 
```json
{
  "minimap": {
    "display_in": "active_editor", //  defaults to "all_editors"
  }
}

```

- The minimap won't hide if you go from an editor pane to the terminal,
the project panel, the search bar, etc. It will only hide if you go from
one editor pane to another.
