Types for Joi.build

[scriptcoded]

Hey!

I'm implementing a way for my front-end to retrieve validation schemes from the back-end automatically. While snooping around I realized that I can use schema.describe() in conjunction with Joi.build(). I wouldn't believe that this is officially supported, but I wanted to mention that the the type definition says the following:

https://github.com/sideway/joi/blob/a2ac147a3ef6c2d96ac2f3ae3407306de1ceb01c/lib/index.d.ts#L2181-L2184

It would appear that Joi.build() takes a description object and parses it into a proper Joi schema. Is that the intended behavior, and should the definitions be updated?

Cheers!

@scriptcoded Defining types for Joi.build() can be very tricky. Also, schema definition may contain unserializable entities such as functions.
