Hi everyone!

Also, CCed Liliana.

Will share my motivation behind this desicion below:

After a separation of emacs-next-tree-sitter 
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=420cf2bf2a

I heard a few complains from wayland users that now they have to choose
between pgtk emacs or tree-sitter emacs (which runs only under xwayland
and is very blurry) and because I didn't faced any issues with pgtk on
X, I think it's more inclusive to inherit tree-sitter from pgtk.

The other option is to have two tree-sitter versions, but I suspect this
way we will get a combinatorical explosion soon :)

Have a nice weekend, everyone!
