Patch Visual Studio Code extension (vshaxe)

This command will detect your installed version of vshaxe and patch its haxe grammar file. Simply restarting Visual Studio Code after the patch should make xml syntax highlighting work.

haxelib run xmlgrammar --vscode

On windows, detection of your Visual Studio Code extensions directory is not supported yet, but you could provide your extension directory with --vscode-ext-path %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions. --vscode-ext-path option can also be used if you want to patch a non-standard vscode extension path.

haxelib run xmlgrammar --vscode --vscode-ext-path 'path/to/your/.vscode/extensions'
