Daniel Shahaf 5fb4cb2f72 Fix regression: Highlight ';' as commandseparator.
This was broken by c2b9327b0763f3457fb09db17e22ee9e1e024792
and tracked as zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting#199.

This fixes the vanilla-newline.zsh test, which was was (consciously) broken
by the previous commit.

FAQ

Why must zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh be sourced at the end of the .zshrc file?

zsh-syntax-highlighting.zsh wraps ZLE widgets. It must be sourced after all custom widgets have been created (i.e., after all zle -N calls).

How to tweak

Syntax highlighting is done by pluggable highlighter scripts, see the highlighters directory for documentation and configuration settings.
