[REQ][SWIFT5] Readonly properties on struct models
Created by: iliaskarim
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Structs support immutability after initialization. Immutable data types, particularly value types like structs, encourage functional programming practices. By reducing shared mutable state inherit in objects with mutable properties, using immutable value types makes it less likely that UI appears out of sync with an application's data.
Describe the solution you'd like
Swift4/5 structs, when built without Objective-C compatibility, rather than declaring their properties with the var keyword, can use private(set) var keywords to make them only be mutated by the struct's initializer.
This solution could be enabled through an additional property that defaults to false.
Describe alternatives you've considered
The let keyword for properties on structs cannot be combined with default values. So, to keep the syntax consistent between properties that have default values and those that don't, use private(set) var instead.
