vsce package cannot be built with vscode and eslint

Describe the bug

since Version 7.7.0 (i think) several modules cannot be built in a vscode extension (eslint) and have to be defined external (keytar way longer )

> xxxxxxx@0.0.1 esbuild-base
> esbuild  ./client/src/extension.ts --outdir=./client/out --bundle --external:vscode --external:keytar --format=cjs --platform=node && esbuild  ./server/src/server.ts --outdir=./server/out --bundle --external:vscode --external:keytar --format=cjs --platform=node --minify

build script (via "vsce package" runs "esbuild-base" and then minify) :

"vscode:prepublish": "npm run esbuild-base -- --minify",
....
"esbuild-base": "esbuild  ./client/src/extension.ts --outdir=./client/out --bundle --external:vscode --external:keytar --format=cjs --platform=node && esbuild  ./server/src/server.ts --outdir=./server/out --bundle --external:vscode --external:keytar --format=cjs --platform=node"

dependencies (we tried: 7.7.0, 7,8,0 and 7.9.0 ) :

        "@zowe/cli": "^7.7.0",
        "@zowe/imperative": "^5.7.2",
        "@zowe/zos-files-for-zowe-sdk": "^7.7.0",
        "@zowe/zos-ftp-for-zowe-cli": "2.1.0",
        "@zowe/zos-jobs-for-zowe-sdk": "^7.7.0",
        "@zowe/zos-tso-for-zowe-sdk": "^7.7.0",
        "@zowe/zosmf-for-zowe-sdk": "^7.7.0",
        "active-win": "^7.7.2",
        "await-notify": "^1.0.1",
        "axios": "0.27.2",
        "keytar": "7.9.0",

To fix this errors we declared these libs as external and included the node packages, which raises the size of vsix file from 6 mb to 48 mb (this could be reduce, by manually tryouts what is needed).

Expected and actual results

how to avoid bundling these libraries (keytar, cpufeatures, sshcrpypto) as external with eslint ?

Describe your environment

WIN 10: node: 18.12.1 vscode extension
