Missing shell script support

[terax6669]

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 21

What happened

You used to be able to get support for sh/bash files after installing C++ support, that no longer seems to be the case.
It should've always been part of the base ide, not C++ bundle. Now it seems to be completely gone from the IDE? I tried enabling C++ support but that didn't change anything.

If I'm not mistaken cnd.script is the module that offers the support. It is still there, but not yet merged to master yet: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/tree/cnd/cnd/cnd.script

I looked at this before (quite some time ago) and it looked like it would be possible to move the module to a different cluster with only smaller changes needed. However, I didn't pursue this further since doing that before CND is merged back to master would just complicate things unnecessarily.
