Auto Import Missing Imports

This is going to be a life-saver. From the days in Eclipse where ctrl+shift+o would auto-import missing imports. I introduce, the feature already built into VSCode but for some reason not a default keybind.

Open ctrl+shift+p and type open keyboard shortcuts and press enter.

Throw the following in your keybindings.json file:

{
    "key": "ctrl+shift+i",
    "command": "editor.action.codeAction",
    "args": {
        "kind": "source.addMissingImports",
        "apply": "ifSingle"
    },
    "when": "editorHasCodeActionsProvider && editorTextFocus && !editorReadonly"
}

Now every time you press ctrl+shift+i it will auto-import missing imports.

PS you can trigger this by hand by clicking on the "Quick Fix" button next to the error and then selecting "Add All Missing Imports".
