How to handle referencing Runtypes in other files?

[simenandre]

Describe the bug

I'm trying to import Runtype objects from other files.

Field names are updated in our name formatter. Maybe we should consider adding a reference variable, so we don't have to fix this in our name formatter? 🤷‍♂️

re #53

To Reproduce

{
  "kind": "record",
  "fields": [
    {
      "name": "inv",
      "type": { "kind": "named", "name": "MyRunTypes.Invoice" }
    }
  ]
}

import * as MyRuntypes from "../my-runtypes";
export const ReferenceToInvoiceRt = rt.Record({
  inv: myruntypes.InvoiceRt,
});

What kind of reference variable do you mean?

Can this be solved with an option to add a string preamble when generating?

No strong opinion on this yet.
