Rule for spacing around punctuation in types about typescript-eslint HOT 5 CLOSED

It should also be possible to define whether there is a space in object definitions between ? and : – most of the time, you don't want that.

Is someone looking at this at the moment? I am willing to give it a try.

A related rule is https://github.com/typescript-eslint/typescript-eslint/blob/fbf1640c5ab67770a1ace5a9bad2bddfa35bd88d/packages/eslint-plugin/docs/rules/type-annotation-spacing.md

We strongly recommend that you use prettier instead of stylistic lint rules. Stylistic lint rules are ugly to write and maintain.

If someone were to work on this - I would suggest augmenting existing lint rules instead of a new one.
type-annotation-spacing is not a good fit as that is specifically about type annotations.

• object-curly-spacing is a good fit for the object type spacing, as that rule already handles object values - in fact we have already got handling for that.
• array-bracket-spacing is probably a good fit for the array type spacing, as that rule already handles array values.
• space-infix-ops is probably a good fit for the &/| spacing, as that rule already handles logical &/| and others.

Per https://typescript-eslint.io/docs/linting/troubleshooting/formatting/#eslint-core-and-formatting:

With the exception of bug fixes, no new formatting-related pull requests will be accepted into typescript-eslint.

This issue has existed for 4 years without much involvement, and requests a new formatting rule. I'm going to go ahead and close it. Thanks for the participation folks!
