A stricter version of `Exclude<T, U>` that excludes types only when they are exactly identical.

@example
```
import type {ExcludeExactly} from 'type-fest';

type TestExclude1 = Exclude<'a' | 'b' | 'c' | 1 | 2 | 3, string>;
//=> 1 | 2 | 3

type TestExcludeExactly1 = ExcludeExactly<'a' | 'b' | 'c' | 1 | 2 | 3, string>;
//=> 'a' | 'b' | 'c' | 1 | 2 | 3

type TestExclude2 = Exclude<'a' | 'b' | 'c' | 1 | 2 | 3, any>;
//=> never

type TestExcludeExactly2 = ExcludeExactly<'a' | 'b' | 'c' | 1 | 2 | 3, any>;
//=> 'a' | 'b' | 'c' | 1 | 2 | 3

type TestExclude3 = Exclude<{a: string} | {a: string; b: string}, {a: string}>;
