Suggestion: flip the assignment direction of generated enums to save some bits

Flip the assignment order

Use Cases

enums

Examples

enum Action {
  foo
  bar
  baz
  thequickbrownfoxjumpsoverthelazydog
}

currently generates:

"use strict";
var Action;
(function (Action) {
    Action[Action["foo"] = 0] = "foo";
    Action[Action["bar"] = 1] = "bar";
    Action[Action["baz"] = 2] = "baz";
    Action[Action["thequickbrownfoxjumpsoverthelazydog"] = 3] = "thequickbrownfoxjumpsoverthelazydog";
})(Action || (Action = {}));

Suggesting instead:

"use strict";
var Action;
(function (Action) {
    Action[Action[0] = "foo"] = 0;
    Action[Action[1] = "bar"] = 1;
    Action[Action[2] = "baz"] = 2;
    Action[Action[3] = "thequickbrownfoxjumpsoverthelazydog"] = 3;
})(Action || (Action = {}));

Checklist

My suggestion meets these guidelines:

• This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
• This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
• This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
• This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, etc.)
• This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.

まず、issue の enum 例をコンパイルし、現在生成される JavaScript と提案された代入順序を比較します。次に、TypeScript コンパイラーの enum の出力経路を追跡し、生成された enum がランタイムの動作を変更せずに提案された形式を使用することを確認します。
