/**
Create a type with shared fields from a union of object types, deeply traversing nested structures.

Use the {@link SharedUnionFieldsDeepOptions `Options`} to specify the behavior for arrays.

Use-cases:
- You want a safe object type where each key exists in the union object.
- You want to focus on the common fields of the union type and don't want to have to care about the other fields.

@example
```
import type {SharedUnionFieldsDeep} from 'type-fest';

type Cat = {
	info: {
		name: string;
		type: 'cat';
		catType: string;
	};
};

type Dog = {
	info: {
		name: string;
		type: 'dog';
		dogType: string;
	};
};

function displayPetInfo(petInfo: (Cat | Dog)['info']) {
	// typeof petInfo =>
	// {
	//     name: string;
	//     type: 'cat';
	//     catType: string; // Needn't care about this field, because it's not a common pet info field.
	// } | {
	//     name: string;
	//     type: 'dog';
	//     dogType: string; // Needn't care about this field, because it's not a common pet info field.
	// }

	// petInfo type is complex and have some needless fields

	console.log('name: ', petInfo.name);
	console.log('type: ', petInfo.type);
}

function displayPetInfo(petInfo: SharedUnionFieldsDeep<Cat | Dog>['info']) {
	// typeof petInfo =>
	// {
	//     name: string;
	//     type: 'cat' | 'dog';
	// }

	// petInfo type is simple and clear

	console.log('name: ', petInfo.name);
	console.log('type: ', petInfo.type);
}
