Description
### Problem
There are a number of requests for syntax highlighting of file formats not currently supported by Gtk.SourceView.
Such requests should properly be made upstream so all users can benefit. However, there is no guarantee that support will ensue in the near future.
As a fallback it may help some users to be able to set Code to use a sufficiently close syntax highlighting definition for a different file format (file extension).
### Proposal
In the language dropdown have a button "+" that brings up a dialog to enter a file extension and a picklist of supported languages. Code would then henceforth apply the desired highlighting to that type of file.
