Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The ability to change the color of the line next to the line numbers (the red one in the screenshot) without effecting the normal text.

Describe the solution you'd like A new highlight group to change the color.

Describe alternatives you've considered I changed TelescopeResultsNormal, but that also affects other text.

Additional context

Research direction
Explore the telescope source code to find where highlight groups are defined (e.g., in lua/telescope/highlights.lua). Add a new highlight group for the line indicator, and ensure it is applied properly in the UI components.
