hot tip for editing `.def` files in IntelliJ:

add `#language=c` before the `---` and IntelliJ will recognise it as C, and help out with highlighting, formatting, and auto completion

That should be added to all the examples like this one: <https://kotlinlang.org/docs/native-c-interop.html#add-custom-declarations>

Very surprised that the Kotlin team didn't mention this in a K/N issue ( <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-55030/Native-obscure-errors-when-passing-by-value-C-struct-union-with-nested-struct-with-bitfields-between-C-and-Kotlin|https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-55030/Native-obscure-errors-when-passing-by-valu[…]on-with-nested-struct-with-bitfields-between-C-and-Kotlin> ) that was encountered.

Tried the trick and found it works with IntelliJ Community edition :smile: .

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work for Objective-C with `#language=Objective-C`. `#language=C` is still better than without though.

We did not know about this feature either :D
