Does not work with Angular 7.2

[m0j0nz0r]

specs: Win 10 Pro 64bit version 1903 build 18362.295 Chrome 76.0.3809.132 (official build) (64 bits)

To recreate:

1. create a new angular project with angular cli.
2. add amazing-date-picker to this new project.
3. follow the instructions in the readme and use the component.

ng serve --aot fails with: ERROR in : Unexpected value 'AmazingTimePickerModule in {projectPath}/node_modules/amazing-time-picker/amazing-time-picker.d.ts' imported by the module 'AppModule in {projectPath}/src/app/app.module.ts'. Please add a @NgModule annotation.

ng serve will succeed with warnings:

WARNING in ./node_modules/amazing-time-picker/node_modules/@angular/core/fesm5/core.js 27315:15-36
Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

going to localhost:4200 (default settings for ng serve) produces this error:

Only partially, Yarn seems to only download latest regardless of what version you tell it to install.

Using npm instead seems to get around the issue, but this is a sub optimal solution.
