Structs inside other structs not highlighted properly

[MatejLach]

It seems that known types, (structs) are not being highlighted when used as a type in another struct:

In this example, I would expect the String of BString, Vec<Bencode> of BList and BTreeMap<BString, Bencode> of BDict to be highlighted, since they are all known types.

In the Bencode struct, BInt, BString, BList and BDict are also all known types and I would expect them to be highlighted but they're not.

One would expect to have types highlighted that were defined before, but the atom-language-rust plugin is just a syntax highlighter. It does not know anything about defined types. It just highlights stuff based on regular expressions. So it will never be able to distinguish between defined types and just any non-existing type name. However, it might be a good idea to add general type name detection to the highlighting rules so that any type names will be colorized.

I don't think I need the highlighter to do the job of validating that the type exists. That seems like a job for the compiler, maybe the linter, etc. If those tools can feed data back into Atom to highlight, underline etc then that would be a solid approach and let the highlighting assume the developer has it right?
