schema should properly set type of objects in arrays

[bvandercar-vt]

Current implementation:

import type {Schema} from 'type-fest';

interface Users {
	names: Array<{
		firstname: string;
		lastname: string;
	}>;
}

type UserMask = Schema<Users, 'mask' | 'hide' | 'show'>;

const userMaskSettings: UserMask = {
	names: 'mask',
}

Should be:

const userMaskSettings: UserMask = {
  names: [
    { firstname: 'mask', lastname: 'mask' },
    { firstname: 'hide', lastname: 'show' },
  ],
}

@sindresorhus, @bvandercar-vt, do you think the implementation should change for arrays in general, or just for arrays of objects?

Given the following example, based on the current implementation:

import type {Schema} from 'type-fest';

interface Users {
	names: Array<string>;
}

type UserMask = Schema<Users, 'mask' | 'hide' | 'show'>;

const userMaskSettings: UserMask = {
	names: 'mask'
}

should userMaskSettings be changed as follows ?

const userMaskSettings: UserMask = {
	names: ['mask']
}

@grigorischristainas that change makes sense to me.
