Interface extends type with itself as generic - Maximum call stack size exceeded

[Pmyl]

interface InterfaceWithGenerics<T> {

}

interface ItBreaks extends InterfaceWithGenerics<ItBreaks> {

}

createMock<ItBreaks>(); // maximum call stack size exceeded

An example of this can be found in @types/jquery -> misc.d.ts -> interface Animation<TElement> extends ...

This issue is partially resolved or at least is rescoped to the fact that we don't support yet circular dependencies in generics, specifically a type that has itself in the generics.

@martinjlowm is working on a PR that will give us this functionality.

In the meantime the feature is not supported and is documented here
