Describe the bug

When a vault is specified in the dendronrc.yml file, the Vault Add and Vault Remove commands can create a name conflict error. This prevents Dendron from successfully loading.

To Reproduce

1. Create a new vault named "Personal Notes" via the Vault Add command
2. Move the vault directory to a new path such as "~/Personal Notes"
3. Remove the settings related to the "Personal Notes" vault from "dendron.yml" and add them to dendronrc.yml instead
4. Reload VSCode via the "Developer: Reload Window" command. Dendron loads normally. The "Personal Notes" vault is available
5. Add a new vault named "Test" via the Vault Add command. The produces an error message: Following vault names have duplicates: Personal Notes
6. Review the "dendron.yml" file and see that it contains settings for the "Personal Notes" and "Test" vaults.
7. Remove the settings for the "Personal Notes" vault from dendron.yml
8. Reload VSCode via the "Developer: Reload Window" command. Dendron loads normally. The "Personal Notes" vault is available
9. Delete the "Test" vault via the Vault Remove command. This produces the same error and merged data in dendron.yml

Expected behavior

The content of dendronrc.yml should not be merged into dendron.yml. This would also prevent the error message and allow Dendron to function normally.

Desktop (please complete the following information)

• OS: Windows
• Versions (all that apply to bug):
  • Dendron Extension: v0.104.1
  • VS Code version: 1.69.2

Additional context

This was discovered while attempting to setup a globally available "Personal Notes" vault that would be accessible in all workspaces in VSCode

Thanks for finding this issue @Lodrus - dendronrc.yaml is still a germ /alpha stage feature, but we can add an item on our backlog to make the vault configuration better w.r.t dendronrc.yaml
