No initialize() function in L.Class definition

[mikhailshilkov]

• I tried using the @types/leaflet package and had problems.
• I tried using the latest stable version of tsc. https://www.npmjs.com/package/typescript
• Authors: @alejo90

When creating a new leaflet control in typescript, I call something like

export var MyThing = L.Polyline.extend({
  initialize: function (latlngs: L.LatLngBoundsExpression, corridor: number, options?: L.PolylineOptions): void {
    L.Polyline.prototype.initialize.call(this, latlngs, options);

which gives a typescript error because initialize is not in type definitions.

Such usage is described in the documentation:
http://leafletjs.com/reference-1.0.3.html#class

Any reason why it's not defined yet?
