Typescript Semantic Highlighting making text white instead of what it should be

[JamesTsetsekas]

In a recent update a feature called Typescript Semantic Highlighting was introduced, which is turned on by default and may cause issues to the syntax highlighting changes, in all existing themes including Cobalt2.

A temporary workaround is to add this setting to your settings.json:
"editor.semanticHighlighting.enabled": false

this will disable Semantic Highlighting

@wesbos , not sure if i should close the issue or leave it open. Just wanted to document the fix for others who may be bothered by Semantic Highlighting changing the theme.
