Support discriminated unions / type narrowing

In TypeScript this is supported by "narrowing"

Consider this example:

---@alias ChatAction { type: '"chat"', targetName: string, msg: string }
---@alias NotifyAction { type: '"notify"', msg: string, colour: number }
---@alias ActionType ChatAction | NotifyAction

---@param action ActionType
local function example(action)
    -- action is any action (properties 'type', 'msg')
    if (action.type == 'chat') then
        -- action is ChatAction (properties 'type', 'msg', 'targetName')
    end
    if (action.type == 'notify') then
        -- action is NotifyAction (properties 'type', 'msg', 'colour')
    end
end

For a union type such as 'ActionType' in the example, the only defined properties should be those common to all types. After narrowing (through some sort of type check, in this case a type field) the additional properties in the narrowed subset are also available.

Commencez par l’exemple de ActionType de l’issue et consultez la documentation TypeScript liée sur le narrowing des types afin de définir le comportement attendu. Le travail est terminé lorsque les valeurs d’une union n’exposent que les propriétés communes avant une vérification de type, tandis que les vérifications du champ type exposent les propriétés de la variante d’action correspondante.
