Log telemetry events into separate log file and the output channels for logs #54001

Description

@ramya-rao-a

At present, there is no way for a user to know what telemetry events are being logged in VS Code other than searching the code base for telemetryService.publicLog. Event after doing so, its never clear what data is exactly being sent. In order to be transparent, we need to have a dedicated place where the user can see all the telemetry events being logged along with the data being sent.

The output channels for the logs (when in trace mode) from various processes (main, shared, renderer) can also benefit from the inclusion of the telemetry events (with common data removed to reduce noise) as this will help the development/debugging process.
