```
vim: Fix % for multiline comments and preprocessor directives  (#53148)

Implements:
[49806](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/49806)
Closes: [24820](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/24820)

Zeds impl of `%` didn't handle preprocessor directives and multiline

To implement this feature for multiline comment, a tree-sitter query is
used to check if we are inside a comment range
and then replicate the logic used in brackets.

For preprocessor directives using `TextObjects` wasn't a option, so it
was implemented through a text based query
that searches for the next preprocessor directives. Using text based
queries might not be the best for performance, so I'm open to any
suggestions.

Release Notes:

- Fixed vim's matching '%' to handle multiline comments `/* */` and
preprocessor directives `#if #else #endif`.
```
