Consider rescript style pipe

[theqp]

In my humble opinion the rescript style pipe has the best of both worlds:

advantages from F#:

• supports tacit style programming (foo instead of foo(%), and foo(bar) instead of foo(bar)(%))

advantages from Hack:

• has placeholder
• TC39 guys will not complain about the performance overhead of closures
• non-fp devs will not complain about currying

The only disadvantage is the complexity compared to the F# one, but that sadly failed.

It was considered. See #143.

FP devs would probs still complain because their apis are typically data-last, whereas Rescript's pipe is designed around data-first apis.

@mAAdhaTTah you are right, however as an FP dev who uses ramda and fp-ts I prefer to write and read foo(bar)() compared to foo(bar)(%), both data-last and data-first placing helps currying, even if a little compared to no placing
