Distinguish `new type` and `type = ` alias #8

It seems that for historical reasons, new type declarations are generated as type aliases. See this TODO comment:

I need type aliases in the Swagger converter, so will use NewType for the time being; however, I've added this issue here to track any changes made to this in future.
