Editor packages vscodium and kate-no-telemetry added to omniverse

Two editor packages, and one other, have been added to the omniverse repository:

- vscodium:
Built from source.
This is from its dev's:
Even though we do not pass the telemetry build flags (and go out of our way to cripple the baked-in telemetry), Microsoft will still track usage by default.
We do however set the telemetry.enableTelemetry setting's default value to false. You can see those by viewing your VSCodium settings.json and searching for telemetry.
The instructions here help with explaining and toggling telemetry.

- kate-no-telemetry:
This is a replacement for kate, that does not require the kuserfeeback package.
The user feedback option is not present in kate's settings.

- kio-no-kwallet:
Another modified package, where the name is self explanatory.
