Add types for basic meta-data annotations #335

The types were determined from https://json-schema.org/draft/2019-09/json-schema-validation.html#rfc.section.9

This library doesn't actually use these properties for anything, however. Is there a particular benefit to listing properties that don't affect the behavior?

This library might not use these properties directly, but it does implement a specification that defines them.

Some functions specify a schema is passed to a callback. This schema should be a valid JSON schema, it shouldn’t just specify the properties consumed internally.

For example:

import { Schema, Validator } from 'jsonschema';

const schema: Schema = {
  type: 'object',
  properties: {
    string: {
      type: 'string',
      // This should be ok
      default: 'Hello'
    }
  },
};

const v = new Validator();
const res = v.validate(value, schema, {
  rewrite(instance, schema) {
    if (instance === undefined) {
      // This should be ok
      return schema.default;
    }
    return instance;
  }
});

I can think of similar use cases for the other properties I added.

Besides that I also like the simplicity of the existing Schema type in this package and I’m using it on other places, since I’m already depending on this package anyway.

Alright, thanks for the answer.

At the very least, how about I work this in to #318
