Name of mod

somewatson/code-server-bat

Wanted change

I've created a new mod to include bat in Code Server. I'd like to make a PR to have it included as a mod. Since I've already written the code, I am just requesting the team to fulfill this step from the README, which states Ask the team to create a new branch named <baseimagename>-<modname> in this repo.

Can we make a new branch called code-server-bat so I can open up a PR?

Reason for change

Bat is useful for viewing files in terminal since it's an improved version of cat and offers a lot of useful syntax highlighting and integration with other tools, like git.

There are tools built into the IDE for viewing git diffs and so on, but when you're already typing in the terminal, I have often found myself using bat since I'm already typing commands in terminal to begin with and I've started including this mod in every instance of code-server I run.

I think it would be nice to have it as an option for other developers as well.
