VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG returns undefined, No process variable for VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG

• code-server version: v1.939-vsc1.33.1
• OS Version: ubuntu
• Extension: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=wraith13.unsaved-files-vscode

Description

console shows:
ide.main.92c1f4.js:67 Activating extension 'wraith13.unsaved-files-vscode' failed: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 0.

I have tried installing via UI, command line and vsix download.
extension works in normal vscode

fixed this by changing line 26 of
~/.local/share/code-server/extensions/wraith13.unsaved-files-vscode-2.0.0/out/src/extension.js
// const localeTableKey = JSON.parse(process.env.VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG).locale;
const localeTableKey = "en-us";

Can we get a VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG in code-server? there are a few extensions that use it.
Also, in chrome devtools opened on code-server window I don't see "process.env" (or process for that matter) but in devtools for regular vscode I do see it.

@jots process is a Node.js API. We don't want that lurking in code-server's side.

So, @foresthoffman would normally have been the guy to talk to for anything extension related. Microsoft TOS doesn't allow us to use their marketplace directly.

I see no reason why we can't add a VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG env variable. @jots Can you change this issue to something like:

VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG returns undefined, No process variable for VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG, or VSCODE_NLS_CONFIG causing extension install failure?
