Missing support for Pick<> and Omit<>

[rvetere]

Whenever an interface is using the typescript features Pick or Omit, then we don't get any props from these interfaces/types.

In the case of an interface like this:

import { type LinkProps } from "next/link";

interface MyComponentProps
  extends Pick<LinkProps, "prefetch" | "replace" | "scroll" | "shallow"> {
  children?: React.ReactNode;
}

export const MyComponent: FunctionComponent<MyComponentProps> = () => {
  return <>My Component</>;
};

-> in this case it will only find "children" as prop.

import { type LinkProps } from "next/link";

interface MyComponentProps
  extends Pick<LinkProps, "prefetch" | "replace" | "scroll" | "shallow"> {
  children?: React.ReactNode;
}

export const MyComponent: FunctionComponent<MyComponentProps> = () => {
  return <>My Component</>;
};

The same with Omit<>:

import { type LinkProps } from "next/link";

interface MyComponentProps
  extends Omit<LinkProps, "prefetch" | "replace" | "scroll" | "shallow"> {
  children?: React.ReactNode;
}

export const MyComponent: FunctionComponent<MyComponentProps> = () => {
  return <>My Component</>;
};

Especially bummed about this one, because it works great up until the point we need to use either of these features.

As we start to refactor our types and share them between components while using Pick<> or Omit<>, we also start to lose out on the benefit of having react-docgen in the first place.
