Many people store configuration files in toml format and it will be useful to add support for this format

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the Consul GUI's KV view page to identify how syntax highlighting is implemented. Look for existing supported formats (e.g., JSON, YAML) and add TOML support by integrating a TOML syntax highlighter or extending the current highlighting library.
