Feature: Generate theme from vscode theme settings

[kitesi]

With vscode, you can run a command (Developer: Generate Color Theme From Current Settings or workbench.action.generateColorTheme), and you will get a json output of all the theme settings.

Maybe this repo could add an npm script to parse that json and make a css file?

I feel like a lot of the popular themes have already been ported over though so maybe not too much value in adding this.

PrismJS/prism#2848 is relevant here.

My initial assessment was that creating such a tool/script would be too hard to be worth it. However, with more granular token types being planned, I think it will become possible in Prism v2.0.

There is still much value in such a tool. Popular themes change and new beautiful themes emerge all the time. Plus manually porting themes is tedious and error-prone. Prism isn't important enough for many people to warrant this kind of effort, so having a tool doing that automatically would be a great help.
