'Code - OSS' didn't look great in the launcher.

Fixes #2982


@joaomoreno is this is fine for Windows and Mac? Matches format of official build.

I believe this was a purposeful choice. We don't want to apply the Visual Studio brand to the OSS flavour of Code. @chrisdias has the word on this.

It might actually be useful in communication to refer to the distinction as "vscode" and "osscode" (or "oscode"?). This would have probably helped out in issue #60 (see comment 6). Compare to Chromium and Google Chrome.

Maybe @chrisdias has an opinion on this?

EDIT: Oops, looks like he was already just added to the conversation.

The OSS version is just that - the OSS version, it is not Visual Studio. It is only "Visual Studio" when we build the distro which applies our branding, licensing, telemetry, etc. We should not merge this in.
