Add OverrideProperties type

[nidomiro]

Adds the OverrideProperties type.
It is basically a Merge with the constraint, that you can only override properties.

Example:

type Foo = {
	a: string
	b: string
}
type Bar = OverrideProperties<Foo, { b: number }>
//=> type Bar = { a: string, b: number }

type Baz = OverrideProperties<Foo, { c: number }>
// error TS2559: Type '{ c: number; }' has no properties in common with type 'Partial{ a: unknown; b: unknown; }>'.

sure, I thought I did.
Maybe you can point out what I'm missing?

Please help review the other open pull requests. If there are no open pull requests, provide some feedback on some of the open issues.

It takes a lot of effort to review all new pull requests. If people submitting new types could also help review other pull requests, it would lighten my load. 🙏

You need to add categories. See other types for example.

I didn't see that, thanks for pointing out

This should match the readme description.

[nidomiro]

Done. I also rearranged the entry in the readme to be right after the merge types.
