Migrate expect to typescript

[natealcedo]

This PR migrates expect to typescript as part of #7807

A few points to note.

1. The diff of before and after migration is too long so I've added in a diff file ts-migration.diff. You'll have to use the local git tool to view the diff since even github wont display it.
2. I have a couple of ts-ignores since I didnt want to change the logic of the code.
3. This PR is still a bit raw in my opinion. I'm more than happy to take feedback to improve it so do let me know!

Thanks! Overall this looks pretty good, there's just a bit too much any 🙂 Seems like typing MatcherState correctly would resolve quite a bit of these issue

[SimenB]

type this as {[key: string]: unknown} (or maybe any), and you shouldn't have to do the type casting later

[SimenB]

Thanks! Great job, this was a tough one.

We can hopefully get rid of some of the anys at a future time, but since we know the code works it's no big deal

Thanks @SimenB! I'm ready to pick up another one once this is good to go. Does this PR require a changelog update?

Fantastic 😀

Does this PR require a changelog update?

It should! Pushed

[thymikee]

LGTM! There are still quite a bunch of any and casting we need to take care of later, but for now this is good enough :) I've added some small adjustments in the last commit

[thymikee]

cannot do it currently, because of export = stuff, and importing from expect/src/types seemed fishy (and caused TS errors, oh well who's got time for that XD)

[natealcedo]

Hey one question before this gets merged in. I was wondering about using the type object (lowercase o). I just noticed I was the only one doing this. Every other package that's been migrated to typescript that uses the object type uses the type Object (Capital O)

I didnt use Capital O object because I was referring to this https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/declaration-files/do-s-and-don-ts.html

It states this

Don’t ever use the types Number, String, Boolean, or Object. These types refer to non-primitive boxed objects that are almost never used appropriately in JavaScript code.
Instead of Object, use the non-primitive object type (added in TypeScript 2.2).

Am I doing this wrongly?

Edit: spelling

[SimenB]

IMO we shouldn't use Object or object - it should probably be {[key: string]: unknown}
