Currently Unovis initializes config classes based on the corresponding TypeScript interfaces. There's a big problem with this approach: the default parameters in the class don't automatically inherit types from the interface, making our code more error-prone.
This PR moves away from using classes to using simple objects for component and container configuration. It solves the problem with the types, and it has already pointed out some of the existing bugs in the code.
The main downside of this approach is that it may be a breaking change on the TypeScript side of things, causing TypeScript errors in our users' code.
