Rename optionalChaining to Object.get and introduce Object.set #99

Open medikoo opened 4 years ago

medikoo commented 4 years ago

Reasoning:

Object.get is simpler and better name
Current implementation cover purely properties resolution, while real ECMAScript optional chaining is also about possible function invocations
It'll be close to lodash's _.get, therefore easier to migrate for users that rely on lodash
Having that we can introduce an Object.set, a conditional resolver that will create eventual objects on the way.
