Create syntax highlighting rules for py-slang chapters #6

As seen in https://github.com/source-academy/frontend/pull/2466, we just set the syntax highlighting rules to match that of full Python for now.

I understand we are only implementing a subset of Python that is enough to cover SICP. To ask:

Do we need different highlighting rules (compared to the default Python rule) for the different constructs that we support in each chapter?
Even if we don't, we should define these highlighting rules inside py-slang so that clients like the frontend can remove patchworks like the above.

chapter-specific highlighting still missing
