This PR introduces a new
Type
, theDynamicType
. It is needed for programming languages that do not have static typing, such as TypeScript or Python. In these languages, the type is determined at run-time. Therefore, neither of our existingAutoType
orUnknownType
types completely catch the dynamics.This PR adds the basic concept of the type itself and uses it very sparsely for function parameters, which previously were of
AutoType
.
