Using GLPK() in TypeScript results in 'This expression is not callable'

[domdomegg]

This code in TypeScript

import GLPK from "glpk.js";

const glpk = GLPK();

Throws a compliation error:

This expression is not callable.
  Type 'typeof import("/my_app/node_modules/glpk.js/dist/glpk")' has no call signatures.ts(2349)

However, based on the documentation this seems like the correct way to initialise the library. Using // @ts-ignore, the library seems to work correctly. So I think this is an issue with the typings in dist/glpk.d.ts.

Specifically I'm using versions:

typescript: 4.9.4
glpk.js: 4.0.1

But think it applies on any modern version of TypeScript.

Hello @domdomegg,

I admit my treatment of TS is quite stepmotherly ... If the fix in the PR works for you (I guess it does now?) then I am just going to merge it.

Thank you
