The types of 'options.autoEncrypter' are incompatible

See original GitHub issue

I’m submitting a … [ ] bug report [x] feature request [ ] question about the decisions made in the repository [ ] question about how to use this project
Summary

When upgrading the mongodb dependency from 4.1.0 to 4.1.1 this is the TypeScript error:

Type 'import(".../node_modules/mongodb/mongodb").MongoClient' is 
not assignable to type 
'import(".../node_modules/connect-mongo/node_modules/mongodb/mongodb").MongoClient'.
  The types of 'options.autoEncrypter' are incompatible between these types.
    Type 'import(".../node_modules/mongodb/mongodb").AutoEncrypter |
     undefined' is not assignable to type 
     'import(".../node_modules/connect-mongo/node_modules/mongodb/mongodb").AutoEncrypter |
      undefined'.

I think that the fix is as simple as upgrading the dependency in package.json: https://github.com/jdesboeufs/connect-mongo/blob/3e273764c2b88da072a1eb2394ae70b5af158623/package.json#L62

If mongodb is abiding by good semver citizenship (which I think they will), the promise with minor and patch releases is that they do not break the interface…

I’ve added a pull request.

@huineng You’ll simply want to ensure mongodb is in your package.json dependencies.
npm install mongodb or yarn install mongodb
