vim: Fix escape key switching back to default mode instead of normal mode (#31843)

Closes #31728

This PR introduced new setting `"helix_mode"`. Enabling which will
enable the `vim_mode` along with `helix` behavior.

This solves issue where `vim`'s `default_mode` was being used to switch
between mode instead of opening in `default_mode`.

When `helix_mode` is enabled switcing to `Normal mode` will now switch
to `HelixNormal`


Release Notes:

- Fixed - escape key not switching to normal mode when default_mode is
insert
- Added - `helix_mode` setting to enable/disable helix key bindings
