You can install the version of @types/jquery before the commit that changed char from any to string, which was published in version 3.3.28.

"@types/jquery": "<3.3.28",

Note: this issue was due to @types/angular-mocks having a dependency on @types/angular version "*", which meant that @types/angular-mocks caused angular to be installed with a new minor version, so this probably isn't a bug for jqlite or jquery.
