@johnnyasantoss text/plain should work, since it is a text-based config file.
Please comment below if there are issues.

FWIW it appears that you need the UTF-8 BOM as well as a Newline otherwise the overlay will not work. Some tooling (such as the dotnet sln tool) will insert the UTF-8 BOM when you use it to modify solutions. However if you are missing the newline you will not get the same overlay as you would had you created this file via Visual Studio. See https://github.com/dotnet/cli/pull/8199
