Today our GraphQL API exposes the ability to perform syntax highlighting in a few locations, e.g. to request the highlighted form of a blob or similar. These endpoints always return the entire highlighted file.
When we display search results on the frontend, we first fetch the entire highlighted file and then only display a small subset of it. I am exposing this API so that we can fetch only the subset that we actually plan to render, instead of transferring a substantial amount of data only to later discard it.
