### Improved Theme Descriptions in Colors and Fonts Preferences

<details>
<summary>Contributors</summary>

- [Elsa Zacharia ](https://github.com/elsazac)
</details>

The `Colors and Fonts` preferences page now displays descriptions for the top level theme categories in addition to the individual sub tree elements.
Previously, only child entries in the tree provided descriptive text.
With this update, parent categories such as `Java`, `Basic`, `Debug`, `Text Compare` etc. also include descriptions, helping users better understand what each category covers and making it easier to locate relevant settings.
