Add gulp-util.json

Typings URL: https://github.com/demurgos/typed-gulp-util

Questions (for new typings):

• Does the README explain the purpose of the typings and have a link to the JavaScript project?
• Do the typings follow the source structure (e.g. index.js <-> index.d.ts)?
• Are they external or global modules according the source (e.g. see README sources)?

Change Summary (for existing typings):

I just read about the namespace hack. I am using it internally: should I update my definitions ?

[demurgos]

Well, I checked some other typings and it looks like they are also using import * as ... internally, so I'd like to know if my definitions are valid or not.

[felixfbecker]

No, they are semantically incorrect by ES6 spec. It's a hack. For modules that use export =, use import x = require('')

Thank you!
It's been 3 months since I coded in TypeScript and I forgot some of the details about how to handle this. (I completely forgot the import foo = require(...) syntax. I'll update it.

[demurgos]

I updated my definitions to use the latest version of vinyl and fix the imports. I could test it with some other projects and it seems to work fine.

LGTM. One minor note: https://github.com/demurgos/typed-gulp-util/blob/master/index.d.ts#L17
What is the reason to export this as a type? You can easily use typeof colors to get the type, but you are breaking the naming convention of uppercase names for types here. Also applies a few lines further down again.

[demurgos]

This is a remaining from when I was trying to re-export namespaces. Since there is no export namespace File = Vinyl syntax, this was the closest I could get so I just tried it - but since it does not work I used a normal namespace for File and forgot to remove it for the others.

I just fixed it at the moment.

[felixfbecker]

Oh btw you can also just do export {colors, date}
