wrong generation of richtext (lexical) field typescript type

[artimalternar]

before version 3.66.0 payload generated richtext ( lexical ) field as following

richText?: {
      root: {
        type: string;  <----------
        children: {
          type: string;
          version: number;
          [k: string]: unknown;
        }[];
        direction: ('ltr' | 'rtl') | null;
        format: 'left' | 'start' | 'center' | 'right' | 'end' | 'justify' | '';
        indent: number;
        version: number;
      };
      [k: string]: unknown;
    } | null;

where children -> type was of type string

but after v3.66.0 it generates children -> type as of type any

children: {
          type: any;  <----------
          version: number;
          [k: string]: unknown;
        }[];

but lexical v0.35.0 still requires children -> type as of type string

export type SerializedLexicalNode = {
    /** The type string used by the Node class */
    type: string;  <----------
    /** A numeric version for this schema, defaulting to 1, but not generally recommended for use */
    version: number;
    /**
     * Any state persisted with the NodeState API that is not
     * configured for flat storage
     */
    [NODE_STATE_KEY]?: Record<string, unknown>;
};

so we have a type mismatch as our frontend uses exact SerializedEditorState from lexical library

This was necessary to make the generated types compatible with our TypedEditorState / DefaultTypedEditorState types. Optimally those types should be used over SerializedEditorState - they're usually more useful, so compatibility with them is preferred.

In the future we'll update the generated types to be strongly typed - so all available node types are automatically typed. This should hopefully restore compatibility with SerializedEditorState.
