Description

Extension description states there's syntax highlighting available for Chef Infra (traditional and YAML-based), but after installing the extension, I can see syntax highlighting only for YAML-based infra (Chef Infra Language YAML). Is there any way to enable syntax highlighting for traditional infra language?

Research direction

Reproduce the report in Visual Studio Code after installing the extension, using a traditional Chef Infra file rather than the YAML-based language. Trace how the extension registers syntax highlighting and compare the documented traditional-language support with the observed behavior; done when traditional Chef Infra files receive syntax highlighting as described.
