spreading in types not formatted correctly

[bobzhang]

type oo = < o ; lo : int >

formatted as blow

type oo = {, "lo": int}

The syntax for objects is not implemented. Only syntax sugar for Js.t.

type user = {"name": string, "age": int}

becomes

type nonrec user = <name: string; age: int> Js.t

How important is this feature?

several suggestions:

• if it fails, it should fail aloud
• In the future, we want to do some work to make type Js.t <a> = a, in that case the spreading still makes sense. we should revisit this when we land that feature, some proposed syntax:

type user = { ... basic, "age" : int }
