feat: type decoded resource creation input

[hughgrigg]

Summary

• Allow SimApi.resource<T, TCreate>() to name the input produced by its decoder.
• Keep Partial<T> as the default for existing resource definitions.
• Document the typed form and the supplied update operation's Partial<T> boundary.

Verification

• pnpm check

Closes #30

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Resource creation handlers can now use a separately defined input type, improving support for decoded request bodies and typed create operations.
  • The create input defaults to a partial entity type when no custom type is provided.

• Documentation

  • Added guidance and a typed checkout-session example for configuring custom create input types.
  • Clarified how create and update operations handle decoded request fields.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The resource API now supports a separate generic for the decoded create input. It defaults to Partial<T>. Tests cover the default and typed session input. Documentation explains the create and update behavior.

Changes

Typed resource creation inputs

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Resource create input type propagation src/resource.ts, src/api.ts, src/api.test.ts, src/composed.test.ts	SimResourceProps and SimApi.resource accept a separate TCreate type. The default remains Partial<T>. Tests verify default and custom create input types without casts.
Typed request body documentation docs/request-bodies/README.md	The documentation describes typed decoded request bodies, the Partial<T> default, and the existing update input behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f2d6c

The new typed resource creation path can accept input that does not match the declared creation type, which may cause runtime failures or invalid state. The create-path contract should be corrected before merging.

Preserve the TCreate contract at the state boundary.

stateProps.create accepts TCreate, but this cast changes it to SimResourceProps<T>, whose callback accepts Partial<T>. RestResource.create in src/rest-resource.ts Lines 42-44 invokes the same callback with Partial<T>. A resource declared with TCreate = string can therefore type-check resource.create({}), then call a callback that expects a string. This can throw or create invalid state. Preserve TCreate for the create path, or separate decoder-backed creation from the existing Partial<T> method so the public API cannot pass the wrong shape.
