Description
We are seeing numerous packages which depend on tslib 1.x and 2.x. We'd like to de-duplicate these, but there doesn't seem to be clear docs on if it's safe to update to the latest tslib 2.x when using older TypeScript versions to build. Some folks internally have mentioned that if you're on TS < 3.9, use 1.x. Else it's ok to use 2.x. I'd like to confirm if that's the case.
If there are specific TypeScript minbar versions before we ask everyone to update to 2.x, it would be great to list them in the README so that people can be aware, and also so that we can communicate the dependency. We wouldn't want to ask someone to upgrade, if it's not compatible with the TypeScript version they're using.

Research direction
Start with the README and investigate the compatibility of tslib 1.x and 2.x across the TypeScript versions discussed in the issue, especially the proposed TypeScript 3.9 boundary. Done means the README clearly lists confirmed minimum or supported TypeScript versions and tells users when updating to tslib 2.x is safe.
