Allow disabling ligatures for <$

Hi,

It is a common pattern in JS to use the character $ to mean something special, or as a prefix/suffix.

The problem when doing this in TS at the type level is that it can be surrounded by angle brackets, then haskell ligatures kick in and it looks a little weird.

Thanks! I can add an exception when <$ is followed by <. Would that work?

Sadly, my screenshot was not the most minimal example and I noticed other instances where it looks really off.

The last line looks OK but every other case has kerning and syntax highlighting issues.

I guess <$> is sufficiently uncommon that nobody would mind if it stayed as is.
