Support for Literal?

I’d like to be able to deserialize from_dict() a Union of overlapping types based on the Literal values. Is that possible?

    @dataclass
    class AType:
        # changing type to str doesn't help
        type: Literal['A'] = 'A'

    @dataclass
    class BType:
        type: Literal['B'] = 'B'

    @dataclass
    class AorB:
        u: Union[AType, BType]

        obj = dacite.from_dict(
            data_class=AorB,
            data=loaded_dict,
            config=dacite.Config(strict=False)
       )

@Gideon-Felt in the meantime you can use this in your requirements.txt file:

git+https://github.com/Pickle-Robot/dacite/@master#egg=dacite

We are still stuck on 3.7.6 as well and this works for us.
