Research direction
The issue requests adding support for the `Raw` endpoint type in `servant js`. The referenced comprehensive API file at `servant/src/Servant/API/Internal/Test/ComprehensiveAPI.hs` (line 22) shows how `Raw` is used in the Servant library. Review that file to understand the `Raw` type and then examine the `servant js` package's code generation logic to identify where new type support should be added. Check the comments for any prior discussion or approach. The goal is to enable generation of JavaScript code that can handle `Raw` endpoints, which typically represent custom or arbitrary request/response handling.
