Add Tree-sitter grammar

[yorickpeterse]

Description

This allows a wider range of editors to parse, highlight, etc Inko documents. I'm working on this in https://github.com/inko-lang/tree-sitter-inko.

https://github.com/inko-lang/tree-sitter-inko implements everything necessary at a base level. nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter#6549 adds support for NeoVim, which requires a bunch of NeoVim-specific queries.

For Helix I'm not sure what the process is, but looking at the source code it seems similar to NeoVim in that you have to maintain editor-specific queries.

FWIW, I have also added your parser to https://github.com/alexaandru/go-sitter-forest so anyone using Go will also be able to make use of it. And with that occasion I discovered this gem of a language, looks really awesome!

@alexaandru Thanks! 😄

You might like this - your parser in action, using the Go bindings above mentioned, in my (yet to be open sourced) text editor :-) Cheers!
