Description
Hello,
Im currently writing swagger json generator for adonisjs. For this purpose i need to get the type of the validator schema. The validator class looks like this:
```
import { schema, CustomMessages } from "@ioc:Adonis/Core/Validator";
import type { HttpContextContract } from "@ioc:Adonis/Core/HttpContext";
export default class PatchUserValidator {
constructor(protected ctx: HttpContextContract) {}
public schema = schema.create({
isActive: schema.boolean()
});
public messages: CustomMessages = {};
}
```
The dificultty comes with the implicit typing, because If i will call `class.getPropertyOrThrow("schema").getType().getText()` i will get `any` type. The only other options that occurs my mind is to parse the getText of the whole property by myself, but i hope there is a better solution.
Thank you for your time and have a nice day!

Research direction
Start with the getPropertyOrThrow("schema").getType().getText() call and the implicit schema.boolean() example in the issue. Investigate how ts-morph exposes inferred property types, then determine what API behavior or documentation would let callers retrieve the validator schema type without parsing getText() themselves.
