Using LocalDataSource setFilter with andOperator === false

[richardruge]

Using LocalDataSource.setFilter() with andOperator === false AND with those columns' filter text box displaying; the andOperator is always overridden to be true.

Example: once your data is loaded, you would like to set the filter to show those records where either of two column searches is found; i.e.:
this.dataList.setFilter([{ field: "fieldA", search: "test"}, { field: "fieldB", search: "test"}], false);

You also have table settings as follows:
...columns: { fieldA: { title: "Field A", filter: true}, fieldB: { title: "Field B", filter: true} }

You can monitor the change updates via:
this.projects.onChanged().subscribe(async (change) => { if (change.action === "filter") { ... }

The change.filter.andOperator first comes into the above anonymous function as false and then true. This defeats the original andOperator === false.

With further research, I found ng2-smart-table calls FormsControl.setValue as:
this.inputControl.setValue(this.query);

...and this triggers an onChange event on the filtering text input control. This causes the second unexpected on-change event on the LocalDataSource with the andOperator set to true.

Normally, when a user manually updates the filter fields, it is expected that the filters would be AND'd together. But in this case, I am trying to filter on either fields by trying to OR the field searched together.
