Literal field becomes optional in typescript

[jcampbell]

If I define a property using a Literal with a default value, it shows as optional in typescript. This is similar to #28 but, I think it should be treated differently because the value must be set, even by a client (the property is used as a discriminator in a union).

from typing import Literal
from pydantic import BaseModel


class MyModel(BaseModel):
  my_bool_property: Literal[False] = False

renders into

/* tslint:disable */
/* eslint-disable */
/**
/* This file was automatically generated from pydantic models by running pydantic2ts.
/* Do not modify it by hand - just update the pydantic models and then re-run the script
*/

export interface MyModel {
  my_bool_property?: false;
}

I could be misunderstanding your use case here, but I don't actually think this should be treated differently from #28.

If MyModel is being sent from TypeScript to Python (e.g. as a request), the presence of the default on the Pydantic model means that even if TS doesn't include my_bool_property, it will still be populated as False on the Python side when processing the request data (converting the JSON into a MyModel instance). So in that case, it should be safe to mark my_bool_property as optional on the TS side.

And if it's being used as a discriminator on the TS side and should be required, that sounds like something pydantic2ts wouldn't have direct knowledge of (but a flag to avoid defaulted-fields becoming optional would solve the issue).

But yeah maybe I'm missing something in what you were looking for here.
