This PR adds WebGPU Shading Language to the list of available grammars, the linked repository's grammar is periodically automatically extracted from the WGSL specification itself, which is actually extracted every single time where the specification gets a modification in itself to check the validity of both the syntax and the examples. Thank you very much for developing and maintaining tree-sitter, fantastic project!

Introduction
Tree-sitter is a parser generator tool and an incremental parsing library. It can build a concrete syntax tree for a source file and efficiently update the syntax tree as the source file is edited. Tree-sitter aims to be:
- General enough to parse any programming language
- Fast enough to parse on every keystroke in a text editor
- Robust enough to provide useful results even in the presence of syntax errors
- Dependency-free so that the runtime library (which is written in pure C) can be embedded in any application
Language Bindings
There are currently bindings that allow Tree-sitter to be used from the following languages:
