Improve TS/TSX/JS syntax highlighting for parameters, types, and punctuation (#43437)

This pull request enhances syntax highlighting for JavaScript,
TypeScript, TSX, and JSDoc by adding more precise rules for parameters,
types, and punctuation.

- Added queries for highlighting parameters (`@variable.parameter`)
- Expanded highlighting for type identifiers, type aliases, interfaces,
classes
- Extended/implemented types to improve distinction between different
type constructs (`@type`, `@type.class`)
- Added highlighting for punctuation in type parameters, unions,
intersections, annotations, index signatures, optional fields, and
predicates (`@punctuation.special`, `@punctuation.bracket`)
- Added highlighting for identifiers in JSDoc comments
(`@variable.jsdoc`)

Release Notes:

- Refined syntax highlighting in JavaScript and TypeScript for better
visual distinction of
  types, parameters, and JSDoc elements
