Feature request: First class support for nice-grpc

[SoftMemes]

Ts-proto currently has the "generic" service output target that creates a data representation of a service that can be used both at runtime, and to infer Typescript type signatures of services and clients.

With the magic of Typescript, this works with respect to type checking. An implementation of a service in nice-grpc that implements ServiceImplementation<typeof SomeServiceDefinition> will be appropriately typed and any mismatch in signature will be flagged.

It is not however that IDE friently. Specifically due to the inferred type signatures, there's no clean way to simply use "implement interface" or similar refactoring tools in IntelliJ or other IDEs. It is possible, but the signature it generates is far from readable.

To support nice-grpc, it would be extremely helpful if a regular Typescript interface could be generated, matching the signature of ServiceImplementation and extending from it, so that an implementing class could simply provide the methods of this regular interface and typing errors would be much more readable.

I've been able to move over to using the generates interfaces in our project and IntelliJ does indeed like them a lot more, many thanks!
