Description

Because rust is officially support Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language (TOML), and usually we can not find a project without a Cargo.toml/lock files. I suggest to add a syntax highlighting without needs for external extensions.

No file or test is named. Start by locating rust-analyzer's existing syntax-highlighting entry point and its handling of Cargo.toml and lock files. Done means TOML syntax highlighting works without an external extension, with the relevant tests or checks passing.
