Feature Idea: ship the TypeScript types for this project

See original GitHub issue

Issue Description

Currently the package.json for this repo gets modified when deploying to NPM.

In GitHub, it has a "types": "index.d.ts" entry, but in npm, it does not include this file.

Steps to Reproduce / Code Snippets

Using npm/yarn, Install react-native-gifted-chat
Diff package.json in node_modules with package.json on GitHub.
Notice how the types line is gone, and no index.d.ts exists in the npm node_module.

Expected Results

It’d be great if TypeScript types were available in this node_module.

Additional Information

Nodejs version: 10.x | 9.x
React version: 16.3.x
React Native version: 0.55.x
react-native-gifted-chat version: 0.4.3
Platform(s) (iOS, Android, or both?): Both

I believe it’s because there has been no release after https://github.com/FaridSafi/react-native-gifted-chat/commit/7232ac023e11068b4eb7ae1ed72e848914ddf786.

cc @xcarpentier, would you be able to release a new version? I’m looking forward for the types as well.
