Use regular `enum` instead of `const enum` (`verbatimModuleSyntax`)

Target environment

Browser App (Hosted external to Microsoft 365 platform)

Additional environment details

I'm using this library inside an angular app

Enhancement Idea

I like to enable verbatimModuleSyntax^1.

import { FieldTypes, type IFieldInfo } from '@ngx-translate/core';

export function isLookup(field: IFieldInfo): boolean {
  return FieldTypes.Lookup === field.FieldTypeKind; // error: Cannot access ambient const enums when 'verbatimModuleSyntax' is enabled.ts(2748)
}

We use const enums to drastically reduce the size of the library, especially for the very large enums. At this point we don't anticipate changing.

To be clear, everything is working you are just unable to use a certain ts setting? Can you skip that line or otherwise ignore enums from imported modules?

[viceice]

disabling the TS setting removes a lot compiler features we like to depend on.

I've not tested if I can use a // @ts-ignore comment to ignore that specific piece.

currently I only have two places where I'm using that enum and I replaced with known numbers as workaround.
