Description

During precompilation of Debugger.jl and transiently during debugging, I see multiple warnings of this form:

failed to highlight code, ErrorException("Language 'julia' requires package 'tree_sitter_julia_jll'. Install with: Pkg.add(\"tree_sitter_julia_jll\")")

Is this something that should have been installed automatically? If it's intended to be optional, perhaps the README's installation section should describe it.

Research direction

Start with the README's installation section and the package setup for Debugger.jl. Check whether tree_sitter_julia_jll is expected to be installed automatically or is optional; done means the warning's intended behavior is clear and either the dependency setup or installation documentation reflects it.
