Hi,

I'm using DataTables 3.0.2 with ColReorder 3.0.1 and TypeScript 5.9.3.

The documented initialization syntax allows colReorder to be a boolean:

new DataTable('#example', {
colReorder: true
});

However, when the config object is typed as Options, TypeScript rejects true:

import DataTable from 'datatables.net-dt';
import 'datatables.net-colreorder-dt';

import type { Options } from 'datatables.net-dt';

const config: Options = {
colReorder: true
};

The Typescript error is:

Type boolean has no properties in common with type '...'

My understanding is that the initialization option should accept:

boolean | ConfigColReorder

but through the current Options type it seems to resolve to only ConfigColReorder.

Expected behavior: colReorder: true should be accepted by TypeScript, since it is a documented and supported initialization value.

Actual behavior: TypeScript reports that boolean is not assignable to ConfigColReorder.
