Code highlighting for embedded languages would be cool #220

Description

@mattalxndr

Describe in detail what feature do you want to see in Task for Visual Studio Code.
Give examples if possible.

Please, search if this wasn't proposed before, and if this is more like an idea
than a strong feature request, consider opening a
discussion instead.

    Currently this project doesn't provide any syntax highlighting itself since Task is written in pure YAML and we assume that your editor already has support for syntax highlighting. This would be quite the endeavor to implement so I'm inclined to close this.

    Are you not just able to install the extension you linked and have it work with Taskfiles?
