Description

I love the work that has been done on this repo, its been a huge time savings on a project I am working on!

Following the recent support added for JS/TS parsing by the community, I was wondering if anyone has implemented support for C++ parsing? If not I'll likely need to add that support myself in the coming months, but wanted to check with the community first before investing time into that.

Confirm whether C++ support already exists, then define the required integration points and validation criteria; the issue currently names no files, tests, or concrete completion scope.
