Adopt Elm language package to elm-community #3027

On behalf of elm-community I ask you to use elm-community's clone of Elm.tmLanguage.

The original author Alex Neslusan @deadfoxygrandpa is unresponsive since 2016-04-10.

There is a syntax change in Elm language version 0.17 that needs to be reflected in the package's grammar rules. The existing grammar renders most of the new Elm 0.17 source code red for being illegal.

On 2016-04-06 the language creator @evancz asked deadfoxygrandpa to update his package for the new syntax. Four days later deadfoxygrandpa promised to do it. Since then deadfoxygrandpa wasn't seen on GitHub or on Elm's mailing lists elm-discuss and elm-dev.

See this PR for the pending update and corresponding discussion.

The original package author deadfoxygrandpa is currently unresponsive.
Therefore elm-community has cloned his great package to be able to adapt new grammar introduced in Elm 0.17.

@ThomasWeiser - it's a little more involved than just this change. I've opened an updated PR here: #3033
