Allow specifying no base keymap (#9471)

Ezekiel Warren created

This PR is a bit of a shot in the dark. I'm not sure if this will be
acceptable and I understand if it gets rejected.

I've been trying to integrate Zed as my daily driver and the key
bindings have been a major hurdle for me. Mostly due to the
windows/linux keybindings being messed up, but also me wanting to have
more chained key bindings similar to helix or common in custom neovim
configurations.

I think having a `None` base keymap would allow someone to more easily
implement a new base keymap (#4642) and would make my daily use of Zed a
little nicer 😅.

Also I am aware that there would need to be a little more work done in
this PR for the other base keymaps such as 'atom' since they assume the
'default' (vscode) base keymaps are loaded. I'm happy to do that work if
a 'none' base keymap is acceptable.

Release Notes:

- Added ability to specify no base keymap which allows for full
keybinding customization
