Research direction
Start by reading Roslyn's CSharpSyntaxGenerator and the generated CSharp.Generated.g4 referenced in the issue. Then inspect how this repository maintains csharp.tmLanguage.yml and determine the integration point for generation. Done means a repeatable tool or process generates the grammar for future C# language versions.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
A tool was introduced to write Antlr grammar: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/tree/5cae62a/src/Tools/Source/CompilerGeneratorTools/Source/CSharpSyntaxGenerator.
The result is: https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/blob/5cae62a/src/Compilers/CSharp/Portable/Generated/CSharp.Generated.g4.
I think it would save some effort to support future versions of language, if the textmate grammar generation is also done by tool like CSharpSyntaxGenerator.
