Worksheets collection behavior in .NET Framework

The default behavior for the Worksheet collection base in .NET Framework has changed from 1 to 0. This is the same behavior as in .NET Core.
For backward compatibility the propertyIsWorksheets1Based can be set to true, to have the same behavior as in previous version of EPPlus.
This property can also be set in the app.config:

  <appSettings>
   <!-- Set worksheets collection to start from one.Default is 0,  
        for backward compatibility reasons this can be altered 1. -->  
   <add key = "EPPlus:ExcelPackage.Compatibility.IsWorksheets1Based" value="true" />
   </appSettings>
