Description
It would be nice to be able to define all code style rules in an EditorConfig file, not just the basic ones like line length, but also including extension XML settings like xml.format.splitAttributes and xml.format.enforceQuoteStyle and others (as Microsoft has added EditorConfig code style extensions for .NET).
As it is, we currently have to maintain most code styles in an .editorconfig file, and our XML styles in a .vscode/settings.json file.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing .editorconfig and .vscode/settings.json configuration described in the issue, then trace how XML formatting settings are currently read. Done means the XML style options, including xml.format.splitAttributes and xml.format.enforceQuoteStyle, can be defined through EditorConfig rather than maintained separately.
