Subject: [PATCH] DEV: add Zed editor configuration (#36958)

Discourse already ships with VS Code settings samples, but more
developers are starting to use Zed as their daily driver. This adds a
shared config that matches the project's coding standards.

The config sets up:
- Proper tab sizes and formatting rules per language
- ESLint + Prettier integration for JS/TS/Glimmer files
- ruby-lsp with rubocop for Ruby
- stylelint for SCSS
- File type mappings for .gjs/.gts (Glimmer components)

This way, Zed users get format-on-save and linting that aligns with what
CI expects, reducing friction and style-related review comments.
