Cannot build vsix locally

[mweichert]

What happened?

If our vscode extension is adjusted to use versions of NPM packages that aren't yet published on npmjs.com then we cannot build a vsix using the vsce tool:

npx vsce package --no-update-package-json --no-git-tag-version

Output:

npm ERR! missing: @taqueria/protocol@^0.4.0, required by taqueria-vscode@0.4.0
npm ERR! missing: comment-json@^4.1.1, required by taqueria-vscode@0.4.0
npm ERR! missing: promise-memoize@^1.2.1, required by taqueria-vscode@0.4.0
npm ERR! missing: rambda@^7.0.1, required by taqueria-vscode@0.4.0

This is an known issue with this tool:
microsoft/vscode-vsce#203

What should have happened?

We should be able to build a vsix file using the vsce tool. FYI, the --no-dependencies doesn't work either, as you just get a corrupt build.

I think we can probably fork the vsce tool to add support for npm linked packages.

Steps to reproduce the bug

Checkout e3a100b and run npx vsce package --no-update-package-json --no-git-tag-version from the taqueria-vscode-extension directory.
