I've prepared a PR to try and address this issue.

Steps to reproduce:

Most controls in Visual Studio Code do not support text review commands.

1. Open the directory containing the file in VS Code.
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+E to focus the file tree.
3. Try using the Numpad1/Numpad3 text review commands to review file names character by character in the file tree.

Actual behavior:

NVDA only reports the character '0xfffc'.

Expected behavior:

NVDA should be able to report filenames character by character.
