* Adding scope mapping configuration manifest in `package.json`

* Loading configurable scope mappings from settings.
* Updating Readme with `rust-analyzer.scopeMappings`.
`rust-analyzer.scopeMappings` -- a scheme backed JSON object to tweak Rust Analyzer scopes to TextMate scopes.
   ```jsonc
    {
        //Will autocomplete keys to available RA scopes.
        "keyword.unsafe": ["keyword", "keyword.control"],
        //Values are string | TextMateScope | [string | TextMateScope]
        "comments": "comment.block"
    }
