Essential utilities for TypeScript projects

/**
Check if an object has a property (including inherited) and narrow the object type.

This function performs __object narrowing__ - it adds the checked property to the object's type, allowing safe property access. Uses the `in` operator to check the entire prototype chain.

Unlike `objectHasOwn` (own properties only) and `keyIn` (key narrowing), this narrows the _object_ type to include inherited properties.

@example
```
import {objectHasIn} from 'ts-extras';

const data: unknown = {foo: 1};

if (objectHasIn(data, 'foo')) {
    // `data` is now: unknown & {foo: unknown}
    console.log(data.foo); // Safe access
}

// Also checks prototype chain
if (objectHasIn(data, 'toString')) {
    // `data` is now: unknown & {toString: unknown}
    console.log(data.toString); // Safe access to inherited method
}
```

@note This uses the `in` operator and checks the entire prototype chain, but blocks `__proto__` and `constructor` for security.

export function objectHasIn(object, key) {
    // Guard against prototype pollution
    if (key === '__proto__' || key === 'constructor') {

    }
    return key in object;
}
