Include variables codeSyntax member in exported json #272

Open yinonov opened 1 year ago

The codeSyntax property in variables helps defining alternative values which are not supported in Figma.

codeSyntax.WEB might contain a web supported color representation (e.g. LCH) which isn't supported by Figma but might add a better alternative to web pages.

codeSyntax is already included in the Figma's variable GET API so it might already make sense to be included in the extensions property?

as this issue relates to color spaces especially, design-tokens/community-group#147 introduces a way to enhance color definitions in tokens. Not sure if this should be adopted at this point (as it's still a draft at the time of this writing), but maybe be considered to plan ahead?
