/**
Convert a union type into an unordered tuple type of its elements.

This can be useful when you have objects with a finite set of keys and want a type defining only the allowed keys, but do not want to repeat yourself.

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

type Numbers = 1 | 2 | 3;
type NumbersTuple = UnionToTuple<Numbers>;
//=> [1, 2, 3]
```

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

const pets = {
  dog: '🐶',
  cat: '🐱',
  snake: '🐍',
};

type Pet = keyof typeof pets;
//=> 'dog' | 'cat' | 'snake'

const petList = Object.keys(pets) as UnionToTuple<Pet>;
//=> ['dog', 'cat', 'snake']
