TS classes have automatic constructors

See original GitHub issue

8.3.3 Automatic Constructors https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript/blob/master/doc/spec.md#8.3.3

While looking into gRPC https://github.com/fable-compiler/Fable/issues/1183, I had to add the default constructor manually. It should be generated.

ts2fable ..\..\ts\_proto\examplecom\library\book_service_pb.d.ts book_service_pb.fs

It should have:

type [<AllowNullLiteral>] GetBookRequestStatic =
    [<Emit "new $0($1...)">] abstract Create: unit -> GetBookRequest

I was not able to figure out how to navigate using the TypeScript TypeChecker, so I used another solution. I was able to figure out how to get the full name for the references and the classes, so I used that information to copy the constructors.
