The issue requests Cython syntax support for the MagicPython highlighter but names no implementation files or tests. Start by locating the syntax-definition entry points and existing Python/C/C++ syntax tests, then determine the supported Cython constructs and add coverage showing that they are highlighted correctly.

Description

enhancement

please add Cython Syntax support

I use VScode. Sometimes Python will edit with C/C++ for extend/embed. But vscode-python do not support Cython. It is so unconvenient. Please add it.
