justfiles and Makefiles are structurally similar enough that Makefile highlighting gives useful results on Justfiles out of the box: comments, recipe names, variable assignment, etc.

Also, non-blocking: a dedicated Just.sublime-syntax (e.g. #3557) can replace it later with a more specific mapping. Saw that PR somewhat stalled out and was hunting around for a KISS alternative approach.

Why: I recently started to port from Make to Just (casey/just#3075) and looking to get my other tools playing nice w/ Just.
