Description
The Quarto extension provides a number of autoclosing pairs:
In https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/issues/11110, we have @tomasrei requesting that we add % to that list, for uses in R like %in%. We do that in .R files in Positron like so:

Research direction
Compare apps/vscode/language-configuration.json with extensions/positron-r/language-configuration/r-language-configuration.json, focusing on the existing autoclosing pairs. Consider how adding % would affect non-R Quarto users, then update the appropriate configuration once the intended behavior is clear. Done means the requested pair behavior is represented without disrupting other Quarto editing.
