Record & Tuple Plugin: transform typeof sites to reflect "record" or "tuple" instead of "object"
💻
- [x] Would you like to work on this feature?
What problem are you trying to solve?
The polyfilled Records and Tuples are still objects so the following assertions will fail:
const aRecord = #{};
const aTuple = #[];
assert(typeof aRecord === "record"); // currently the typeof is "object" if polyfilling
assert(typeof aTuple === "tuple"); // currently the typeof is "object" if polyfilling
Describe the solution you'd like
A rewrite of typeof calls should be done: this is similar to the rewrite that is done when polyfilling symbols.
Describe alternatives you've considered
N/A - this is the only way to respect the candidate spec

Hey @rricard! We really appreciate you taking the time to report an issue. The collaborators on this project attempt to help as many people as possible, but we're a limited number of volunteers, so it's possible this won't be addressed swiftly.
If you need any help, or just have general Babel or JavaScript questions, we have a vibrant Slack community that typically always has someone willing to help. You can sign-up here for an invite.
We should make sure that this works both when compiling typeof symbols and when just compiling R&T.
