Simplify FileStore error recovery to prevent startup crash on decryption failure
Problem
The language server can fail to start on Windows when the encrypted FileStore cache cannot be decrypted, resulting in
"Unsupported state or unable to authenticate data" error.
Fixes aws/aws-toolkit-vscode#8458
Solution
Simplify error recovery by removing the lockSync wrapper and directly overwriting the corrupted file with a fresh empty
store.
