[monitor, theia] ActivityTrackerFrontendContribution is not bound to self, therefore not customizable

Describe the bug

It's impossible to customize the ActivityTrackerFrontendContribution as it is not bound to self but directly as a FE contribution:

theia-cloud/theia/extensions/monitor-theia/src/browser/monitor-frontend-module.ts

Line 48 in 55813e2

bind(FrontendApplicationContribution).to(ActivityTrackerFrontendContribution);

Expected behavior

Downstream projects can customize the activity tracker Theia-extension

ActivityTrackerFrontendContribution is not bound to self #427

The services are created using the new keyword:

theia-cloud/theia/extensions/monitor-theia/src/node/monitor-service.ts

Lines 22 to 26 in 55813e2

    
           const modules: MonitorBackendModule[] = [new MessagingBackendModuleImpl()]; 
        
           if (process.env[MONITOR_ENABLE_ACTIVITY_TRACKER] === 'true') { 
        
             modules.push(new ActivityTrackerBackendModuleImpl()); 
        
           } 
        
           return modules;

At the same time, they are decorated with Injectable and have a binding in the module:

theia-cloud/theia/extensions/monitor-theia/src/node/monitor-backend-module.ts

Lines 32 to 34 in 55813e2

    
           // handle messaging backend module 
        
           bind(MessagingBackendModuleImpl).toSelf().inSingletonScope(); 
        
           bind(MessagingBackendModule).toService(MessagingBackendModuleImpl);

theia-cloud/theia/extensions/monitor-theia/src/node/monitor-backend-module.ts

Lines 47 to 49 in 55813e2

    
           // handle activity tracker backend module 
        
           bind(ActivityTrackerBackendModuleImpl).toSelf().inSingletonScope(); 
        
           bind(ActivityTrackerBackendModule).toService(ActivityTrackerBackendModuleImpl);

theia-cloud/theia/extensions/monitor-theia/src/node/monitor-backend-module.ts

Line 20 in 55813e2

    
           bind(TheiaCloudBackendMonitorService).to(DefaultTheiaCloudBackendMonitorService).inSingletonScope();

DefaultTheiaCloudBackendMonitorService is preferably bound to self.

This issue is stale because it has been open for 180 days with no activity.
