Add support for italics in the theme.

[gautamkhatter]

Many themes in the marketplace have italics support that makes a life a lot easier, especially in front end development.

For eg:- When the HTML markup is a large file then if the attributes are italicised, it would be a lot easier to look at and modify the markup.

Please provide support for this feature. It would be a life saver.

Thank You

Do you mean making HTML attributes italic, like in this example?

Hmm... in general, this theme tries to stay close to how github.com highlights HTML attributes which are non-italic. But we can convert this issue to a discussion and see if we get more feedback.

Based on this comment, you can also enable this in your settings.json with:

"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
    "textMateRules": [
        {
            "scope": "entity.other.attribute-name",
            "settings": {
                "fontStyle": "italic"
            }
        }
    ]
}

Moving from #213 where @mittalyashu has a similar suggestion.

Add italics version for light, dimmed and dark theme.

In the meantime if anyone else wants to add italics to any of their themes (including Github theme), you can copy the following snippet in your settings.json: https://gist.github.com/mjsarfatti/ab0c9386436d47b7a7c8c4fae3769670
