Search in Explorer not recognizing h/j/k/l keys when lowercase #9457

Describe the bug
The / search feature in the Explorer View of VS Code is not recognizing the h/j/k/l keys. Oddly enough, search works if typing H/J/K/L (seems to ignore vim motion keys when uppercased.)

To Reproduce

  1. Use / to search for a file/folder
  2. Try h/j/k/l to navigate (buggy behavior)
  3. Try H/J/K/L to navigate (proper behavior)

Example:

            |--- Folder1
type /l ==>          v       (lowercased l)
                |--- AAA.txt
                |--- BBB.txt
                |--- CCC.txt
                |--- LLL.txt
            |--- Folder2
                |--- HHH.txt

(Opens AAA.txt, instead of moving focus to LLL.txt)

            |--- Folder1
type /L ==>          v       (UPPERCASED L)
                |--- AAA.txt
                |--- BBB.txt
                |--- CCC.txt
                |--- LLL.txt
            |--- Folder2
                |--- HHH.txt

(Moves focus to LLL.txt, working as expected)

            |--- Folder1
type /h ==>          v
                |--- AAA.txt
                |--- BBB.txt
                |--- CCC.txt
                |--- LLL.txt
            |--- Folder2
                |--- HHH.txt
(Moves focus to Folder1, instead of moving focus to HHH.txt)

Expected behavior
Expected that h/j/k/l (lowercased) could act as search characters. Instead, when in search mode, h/j/k/l still act as nav keys.
