Description

[fzf-preview.vim](https://github.com/yuki-yano/fzf-preview.vim) can generate the **left panel** also with **syntax-highlight**, it's *bat*-ed. For example `:FzfPreviewLinesRpc` is the top image while next screenshot uses `:Rg` alike command that I defined in [#1533](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim/issues/1533#issuecomment-2773383166).

Research direction

Start with the :FzfPreviewLinesRpc and :Rg entry points, and compare the two screenshots with the syntax-highlighted behavior in fzf-preview.vim. Review the related discussion in #1533 to determine the intended left-panel behavior. Done means the left panel is syntax-highlighted in the requested usage.
