Incomplete type declaration in interface FeedData for property description

[WetHat]

In the interface FeedData the property decription is declared as:

description?: string;

However sometimes the description element in the parsed RSS feed is returned as object:

"description": {
    "#text": "Updates, ideas, and inspiration from GitHub to help developers build and design software.",
    "@_type": "text"
  },

To accurately reflect this situation the FeedData interface could be changed like so:

/**
 * Type for property bag objects (key -> value) with unknown content.
 */
export type TPropertyBag = { [key: string]: any };

export interface FeedData {
  link?: string;
  title?: string;
  description?: string | TPropertyBag ;
  generator?: string;
  language?: string;
  published?: string;
  entries?: Array<FeedEntry>;
}

Alternatively, the extractor could desctructure the description element and just return the string.

@WetHat if you mentioned to https://github.blog/product.atom, this is standard ATOM format and it should work welll:

My mistake, sorry. I had this issue a while ago (build error) and remembered it had to do with an element attribute. When I looked at the xml file I did not find the description element and thought it must have been the title. I totally missed the point that this is an ATOM feed that the extractor returns the subtitle as feed description. However, the feed description is an object and not a string (see screenshot).

I've updated the issue.
