Paths<T> should handle recursive types

[Xriuk]

Currently Paths<T> does not handle types like this (translation of some backend DB entities):

type MyEntity ={
   myOtherEntity: MyOtherEntity;
    ...
}

type MyOtherEntity ={
    myEntity: MyEntity;
    ...
}

type MyEntityPaths = Paths<MyEntity>;

TS gives an error like this: The type of property ... circularly references itself in mapped type ...

The main issue here would be determining if any given type recurses, which would require comparing already entered types (which afaik is unfeasible). A possible solution would be adding an optional "hard limit" of depth parameter, which won't go beyond N levels deep. In this case also types using Paths<T> like PickDeep should include this parameter and forward it to Paths<T>.
