As far as I can tell, this should always be false. Right now the type get's narrowed to Bar in the if, is this right? Or should it narrow just to Foo?

Shouldn't it narrow to never inside the if since Bar | boolean can never satisfy the condition?

@fatcerberus That's a good point. I didn't think about narrowing to never. Seems like the thing to do. I'll change this. Thanks.

Is there somewhere else I should put this or is this ok?

Fixes #23274
This builds on work done by @Kingwl in PR #23622 to add a new type guard checking for the
instance.constructor === Constructorsyntactic pattern to narrow the type ofinstance.I'm making this a draft PR as there's a couple things I need some guidance on.
Thanks!
