Function makeTableRenameAndFilter

Creates an info lookup object from a more nicely-formatted table.

Note: Using as const on the arguments to this function is necessary to infer the correct type.

Example:

const t = makeTableWithDefaults(
  { c: 'default' },       // columnRenames
  ['a', 'default', 'd'],  // columnsKept
  ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'],   // columns
  [123, 456, 789, 1011],  // defaults
  {                       // table
    foo: [1, 2, 3, 4],
    bar: [5,  ,  , 8],
    moo: [ , 9,10,  ],
  }
);

// t = {
//   foo: { a:   1, default:   3, d:    4 },
//   bar: { a:   5, default: 789, d:    8 },
//   moo: { a: 123, default:  10, d: 1011 },
// };
Copy

MAINTENANCE_TODO: ZipKeysWithValues<Members, Table[k], Defaults> is incorrect because Members no longer maps to Table[k]. It's not clear if this is even possible to fix because it requires mapping, not zipping. Maybe passing in a index mapping would fix it (which is gross) but if you have columnsKept as [0, 2, 3] then maybe it would be possible to generate the correct type? I don't think we can generate the map at compile time so we'd have to hand code it. Other ideas, don't generate kLimitsInfoCore and kLimitsInfoCompat where they are keys of infos. Instead, generate kLimitsInfoCoreDefaults, kLimitsInfoCoreMaximums, kLimitsInfoCoreClasses where each is just a {[k: string]: type}. Could zip those after or, maybe that suggests passing in the hard coded indices would work.
