Optional Zed Settings

This is not required, but if you set semantic_tokens to "combined" in Zed's settings.json and add the following configuration, the colors will be closer to the original Moonlight theme.

{
    // ...existing settings
    "global_lsp_settings": {
        "semantic_token_rules": [
            {
                "token_type": "parameter",
                "style": ["variable.parameter"]
            },
            {
                "token_type": "property",
                "token_modifiers": ["declaration"],
                "style": ["property.declaration"]
            },
            {
                "token_type": "type",
                "token_modifiers": ["defaultLibrary"],
                "style": ["type.defaultLibrary"]
            },
