Syntax highlighting for new description syntax

[kbrandwijk]

Hi, the latest GraphQL spec updated the description syntax: graphql/graphql-js#927. This is not supported by the current syntax highlighting. An example:

"""
Description that is

spanning multiple lines
"""
type Test {
   "Field description"
   field: String
}

The current comment element is here: https://github.com/rmosolgo/language-graphql/blob/master/grammars/graphql.json#L162-L169 but for backwards compatibility, I think two new elements (descriptionline and descriptionblock) might be best?

Thanks for opening the issue! Yes, I think you're right that adding new elements would be best. AFAIK, "block strings" (delimited with """) are valid anywhere that a string is allowed, right? So, maybe we should add rules for block strings? (graphql/graphql-spec#327)

Yes, but those are two different things. Block strings are allowed for field values (so in input values). This issue is about descriptions, which can be normal strings or block strings.
