Bundle type declaration to avoid exposing internal types and enforce encapsulation

TODOs

• Convert Unicode escapes in outputted index.d.ts into actual code points
  Alternatively, use rollup-plugin-dts

• Alternatively, use rollup-plugin-dts

We've used rollup-plugin-dts before, but it didn't build the correct module structure, and it's not in active development for some time.

Nonetheless, I like the idea that we build multiple target formats. (btw do we really need the CJS target? I understand that the UMD one is for single-file distribution, and the ESM one for pakage managers. CJS just seems redundant 🤔

CJS just seems redundant 🤔

Actually I once thought so too (but nevertheless merged that PR. I forgot the reason why). Let’s remove it

I would like to try @microsoft/api-extractor, but I don’t think I’ll have the time to dig into it anytime soon. Help me take a look into it if you’ve got the time (unless you don’t think doubling the file size (before gzip) is a problem) 😄

@syimyuzya I don’t think the entire type definition is currently in a usable state:

So it seems crucial to give it a fix soon.

P.S. Be careful not to make the same mistake I made with the library mentioned above, which is a problem Masquerading as ESM/CJS:
