Deduce type from values

It is indeed possible to have a TypeScript type and an array of all of its
possible values without repeating ourselves.

The trick is - while we cannot go from types to values, we can go the other way
around. The sidetrick is - typeof array[number] gives us type of an array's
elements.

Combined, we get this pattern

    const fruits = ["banana", "orange"] as const;
    type Fruits = (typeof fruits)[number];
