ES Next: Logical assignment operators

See original GitHub issue

This proposal is completed (stage 4) and supported by TS, it’s expected to be part of ES2021. https://github.com/tc39/proposal-logical-assignment

It also works in most browsers today: https://caniuse.com/mdn-javascript_operators_logical_nullish_assignment

Can you add support for it? I have code that uses ??= and it doesn’t parse 😦
