Transform HTML entities to unicode

The Babel JSX compiler converts HTML entities into the unicode characters they represent. In ReScript, we have to use the actual unicode directly. For some characters, like   this isn't always convenient.

Would it be possible for the React PPX to do the same transformation that Babel does? See their entity map for reference: https://github.com/babel/babel/blob/b3e2bcda73dea7d68b4c82bfabb92acb11b1ed90/packages/babel-parser/src/plugins/jsx/xhtml.js

Babel example

Input

let f = () => <div>&nbsp;</div>;

output

let f = () => /*#__PURE__*/React.createElement("div", null, "\xA0");

ReScript example

Input

let f = () => <div> {React.string("&nbsp;")} </div>

Output

function f(param) {
  return React.createElement("div", undefined, " ");
}

Note that "  will render as-is, not as an actual nonbreaking space character.

Comienza con la transformación JSX de React PPX y compara su comportamiento con el mapa de entidades JSX enlazado de Babel. Usa los ejemplos de Babel y ReScript del issue como casos que comprobar; estará terminado cuando las entidades HTML compatibles produzcan los caracteres Unicode correspondientes, como hace Babel.
