tsc needs `"types": ["node"]`, tsgo doesn't

This is an intended change. See https://devblogs.microsoft.com/typescript/announcing-typescript-6-0-rc/#types-now-defaults-to-[].

Oh, thanks!

Wait, isn't this still a legitimate todo for tsgo then? Since it should behave like that too?
But I guess you might be tracking this elsewhere already.
