Rewrite to typescript

[wookieb]

Will you allow me to rewrite whole package to typescript?

Short answer: no. All projects in the Level organization are written in plain JavaScript and it's safe to say the majority of users and maintainers prefer it that way. This is not gonna change. See also Level/abstract-leveldown#204 (comment).

Thanks for understanding! Efforts are underway to provide DT typings, see Level/community#16. If you have further questions about TS, feel free to ask in that thread.
