Add LanguageGood First Issue

Description

Language name

Stealify which will implement all linguist languages

Stealify is a Polyglot Language and Compiler it aims to be Markdown Compatible while it introduces additional invocations and not only the code block directives in Markdown it adds additional Typescript/Stealify Lang/ ECMAScript / Javascript tagged template string calls to objects named 1:1 related to the file extension and or Language Name in linguist

I try to depend on the same language.yml converted to json for convinience to make overall Interop between existing open source more streamlined

URL of example repository

https://github.com/stealify/lang/tree/main/linguist-examples

URL of syntax highlighting grammar

This is the main problem i guess i am not sure this will take some time to evaluate in general we map

.js => js``, js()
.ts => ts``, ts()
d.ts => d.ts``, d.ts() 
// importent in this concept is that inside that we would not handle js`c`` `
.md`this would handle stealify so is equal to stealify parsing rules`
.stealify`this can be nested`

Most popular extensions

as of time of writing i guess this is the list of directly affected files while stealify is manatory for the first integration step everything else will need maybe many iterations. .stealify .md .ts .mts .cts .js

Research direction
Start by reviewing the provided example repository at https://github.com/stealify/lang/tree/main/linguist examples to understand the Stealify language structure. Then, examine Linguist's contributing guide and existing language definitions for similar polyglot or template based languages. Since the issue has no responses, it would be wise to ask maintainers for clarification on the acceptance criteria and whether a minimal proof of concept (e.g., adding just the .stealify extension) is desired before tackling the full polyglot mapping. The issue mentions many affected extensions (.stealify, .md, .ts, .mts, .cts, .js), so focus on the mandatory ones first.
