Allow keycloak-js default export to be used as a constructor

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

Imagine the following code:

import Keycloak from 'keycloak-js';

const keycloak = new Keycloak();

Using JavaScript (without TypeScript) this code works absolutely fine, but with TypeScript it doesn’t “compile”

Version

Latest

Expected behavior

Due to the nature of the underlying plain JavaScript I would expect both notations with and without new keyword to work.

Actual behavior

Using the new keyword doesn’t work in TypeScript

@damnedOperator You can cast the type with typescript tooling to match your requirements. That’s what I did for now. It looks a little bit ugly but works no problem

Yeah that would be the best approach for now. Unfortunately releases of Keycloak JS are tied to the release process of Keycloak itself so we cannot simply publish a new version of the JS adapter.
