Thanks @JonasHelming, this works and looks great and is a nice improvement for the settings UI! 🎉
I added two comments inline, would be great if you could have a look when you have some time.
Besides that, I noticed our settings UI does not support searching for tags, although the PreferenceSchema descriptions says so, however this should not block this PR and we can look at this in a follow up as well, from my POV.

What it does
Implement visualization of preference tags in Theia's settings UI, similar to VS Code's behavior. Previously, preferences with
tagsdefined in their schema (e.g.,tags: ['experimental']) were not displayed in the UI, making it difficult for users to identify special preference categories.How to test
Can also be tested in #16784
