[2.x] Incomplete type for mouseButton object - missing properties. (Types only)

[nbogie]

Most appropriate sub-area of p5.js?

• Accessibility
• Color
• Core/Environment/Rendering
• Data
• DOM
• Events
• Image
• IO
• Math
• Typography
• Utilities
• p5.strands
• WebGL
• DevOps, Build process, Unit testing
• Internationalization (i18n)
• Friendly Errors
• Other (specify if possible)

p5.js version

v2.1.0-rc.2

Web browser and version

n/a

Operating system

n/a

Steps to reproduce this

Steps:

Either:

Search for declare const mouseButton or middle in https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/p5@2.1.0-rc.2/types/p5.d.ts

Or:

1. import the v2.1.0-rc2 release into a typescript project

2. write a sketch including any/all of these statements:

const a = p.mouseButton.left;
const b = p.mouseButton.right;
const c = p.mouseButton.middle;

3. type-check the code
   It will fail to type-check as the properties left, right, middle are not in the generated types, though are present on the object at runtime, and an attempt has been made to add them in the jsdoc.

I'd be happy to apply the find-replace approach that Dave suggested on discord.

However, I don't think i have the TS/JSDoc skill to get the proper general solution (automatic types on properties for returned objects) quickly.

Thanks @nbogie! The patch solution is sufficient.
