Espruino Typescript, disable function hoisting in typescript

Suggestion

Add compiler support for disabling function hoisting currently transpiled code use a lot of function hoisting features , i know its normal javascript implementation but i have been trying to use typescript in my IOT projects using Espruino , and esprunio interpretter doesn't support function hoisting, so i have to manually change my transpiled code , like __extends , __generator etc

Use Cases

We would be able to use Typescript in Espruino projects

Example

By adding another compileroption flag in tsconfig.json

Checklist

My suggestion meets these guidelines:

• This wouldn't be a breaking change in existing TypeScript/JavaScript code
• This wouldn't change the runtime behavior of existing JavaScript code
• This could be implemented without emitting different JS based on the types of the expressions
• This isn't a runtime feature (e.g. library functionality, non-ECMAScript syntax with JavaScript output, etc.)
• This feature would agree with the rest of TypeScript's Design Goals.
