Issue with [formControl] input

[CosminCraciun]

When using [formControl] instead of formControlName, styles are not changed on validation failure.

Example:
<input class="form-control" type="text" [formControl]="this.emailControl">
does not change the input class on validation failure.

For context, I'm using FormGroupTyped, so my situation is more like this:
<input class="form-control" type="text" [formControl]="this.formGroup.controls.email">

In my case, when using [formControl] the compilation fails altogether, as the type of the [formControl] input binding of the FormControlDirective from ng-bootstrap-form-validation is defined as string - which does ALSO match the conflicting definition in angular's own FormControlDirective, where the type is FormControl - and not string.

ng build thus yields something like this: Type 'FormControl' is not assignable to type 'string'

As far as I can tell, the @Input() formControl: string is in reality not even used in the FormControlDirective 🤔
Could it maybe just be removed??

I reckon the validation wouldn't work for such a "standalone" field, as the selector wouldn't match without that input - but now it actually breaks otherwise working, which is much worse.
