Description
It's pretty common in ReScript that you want to add some method to a type and thus want to restructure it into its own submodule.
E.g.
type readState = New | Unread | Read
to
module ReadState = {
type t = New | Unread | Read
}
I am not sure though, if we should deliberately not allow this action on types named t (which are supposedly already in their own module).

Research direction
Start by locating the existing VSCode code-action entry points and their tests, since the issue names no files. Implement the requested conversion from a ReScript type to a module-wrapped type, and establish the expected behavior for types named t; done means the action produces the intended structure and its behavior is covered by tests.
