Annotate all CloudFormation resource types with the type of their 'Ref'
(whether it returns a Name, Id or Arn). We generate specific
classes for those types, just like we do for {Fn::GetAtt} attributes.

This makes it easier to write construct libraries: it removes the need
for every construct library to explicitly declare a custom type for the
ref implicit type, and reduces chances of a ClassCastException in Java
if they do it wrong.

Generated resource classes no longer implicitly inherit from
Referenceable, because not all resources even have the {Ref}
operator defined.

Fixes #619.

I like this 👍🏻

Nice to have: the JSON diff you have to add, where you just have to fill in the type.

Can we standardise towards either singular or plural, but not both?

Well then maybe name the type SpecialRefType or something?

(Not prompting for any action, just thinking out loud here)

Seems to me like a valid use-case for implementation-specialises-interface-or-superclass that we work so hard to prevent (aka - Resources are Referencable, they return "some kind of Token"). Generics also could solve this nicely, so everything that has a .ref is Referencable.

It totally is, and I'm sad too.

But C# is statically typed without covariant return types, and Golang is statically typed without generics. So I feel we're stuck restricted to the common denominator between all languages.
