[Bug]: Cannot amend config to use `maxIndexCount`

[Slartibartfass2]

What happened?

When one tries to amend the current config by passing an object for pointerTracking to set the maxIndexCount an exception is thrown because deepMergeObject can't handle union types.

flowr/src/util/objects.ts

Line 29 in d012d32

} else if(typeof base !== 'object' || typeof addon !== 'object') {

This happens because the default config has pointerTracking set to true, and now deepMergeObject can't merge a boolean with an object.
